(KSL News) A young Lehi girl was hurt Monday night when a horse kicked her in the head.
A helicopter took the 3-year-old girl to Primary Children's Medical Center. She was unconcious and in critical condition at the time.
The girl's family called emergency teams around 8 p.m., but no one is sure how long the girl had been down.
Sgt. Spencer Cannon of the Utah County Sheriff's Department said, "We don't know if she went in to play with the horse or just was playing and wandered into the area where the horse was, but she was in the stall where a horse was when she was kicked."
The girl was breathing on her own when medical personnel found her, but they're worried she suffered serious head injuries.
A donation fund has been set up to help the girl and her family. You can donate at any America First Credit Union.
