Rock hits young girl in head during hike

A young girl suffered critical injuries during a hike in Mokuleia Monday morning.

Honolulu fire officials say the girl was hiking with a group from Camp Erdman at around 10:30 a.m. when she was struck by a rock.

Officials say the rock hit her head and caused life threatening injuries.

She was airlifted out of the area and taken to the hospital.

We do not have all the details confirmed at this time, nor can we release the participant’s name or age due to confidentiality policies regarding a minor.
