Tales Of The Walking Dead Crew Member Falls Off Boat and is Hospitalized With Injuries

GEORGIA - According to a new report published on theblast.com, a crew member on the set of “Tales of the Walking Dead” has been severely injured.*  

The accident news report states that a crew member, who cannot swim, accidentally fell off of the top of a riverboat and into the water.  The report states that the accident victim also struck a dock prior to landing in the water.  The accident transpired in Stone Mountain Park and the 911 call was placed at about 8:30 PM.

Several news sources reported that witnesses saw the crew member fall from the top deck of the riverboat and “bounce” off of a railing below and struck a dock prior to falling into the water.  The crew member could not swim but marine safety crew members pulled her out of the water.  She was transported to a local area hospital by ambulance and is in stable medical condition.

The accident is currently under investigation.  The IATSE is also investigating the cause of the fall accident.  Production was suspended until last Wednesday. The riverboat and the dock are used used by Netflix’s “Ozark” for their casino boat setting.
