    THORNTON, New Hampshire (WMUR) — A bride who was getting ready for her ceremony was sent to the hospital after suffering a head injury in Thornton on Friday, authorities said.

Campton-Thornton fire Chief Daniel Defosses said emergency personnel responded to Pemi River Road in Thornton near Owl’s Nest Friday afternoon for a report that a bride was injured after getting part of her dress stuck in a golf cart wheel.

Owl’s Nest general manager Brad McCoil said the bride was taking pictures before the ceremony when she hitched a ride with someone in a golf cart and got part of her dress caught in a golf cart wheel.

“It was a freak accident, it’s so unfortunate it occurred,” McCoil said.

Authorities said the bride was sent to Speare Memorial Hospital in Plymouth before she was transferred to Dartmouth-Hitchcock in Lebanon for treatment.

McCoil said the bride is recovering from her head injury.
