Pavilion collapses in central Pa., several injured

PARADISE, Pa.—Officials say a pavilion has collapsed at a park in central Pennsylvania and as many as 10 people are hurt.

Lancaster County Emergency Management Director Randall Gockley says the accident happened around 8:30 p.m. Friday at the Paradise Township Community Park in Paradise Township.

Dennis Groff, emergency management coordinator for Paradise Township, told Lancasteronline.com there were no fatalities.

Television footage shows a large triangular roof damaged and sitting on the ground. Gockley says the pavilion is about 40-feet by 40-feet in dimension.

People were playing baseball when severe storms swept through the area. About 40 to 50 people sought shelter in the pavilion. Heavy winds from the storm then caused the pavilion to collapse.

Gockley says he doesn't know the extent of the injuries, but that some are believed to be serious. The injured have been taken to hospitals.
