Several people were injured – with one of them hospitalized – when a railing collapsed during a high school football game at the Minnesota Vikings' TCO Stadium in Eagan on Friday.
The freak incident happened during the game between Cretin-Derham Hall and St. Thomas Academy at the Vikings' training campus, with students leaning against a railing as Cretin-Derham Hall players celebrated in front of them.
Video shared to social media shows the railing at the front of the bleachers collapsing, sending spectators crashing to the ground, some of them landing on top of CDH players.
In an email to families, Cretin-Derham Hall President Jeb Myers said 20-30 players fell between four and six feet to the ground.
The Minnesota Vikings issued a statement saying that several people were treated at the scene by paramedics, with one sent to a hospital for further evaluation.
