HOUSTON -- A fan has been taken to a Houston hospital after falling from an escalator at Reliant Stadium.

A statement issued by officials of Reliant Park, where the stadium is situated, said the fan fell from the escalator Thursday night while attending a preseason game between the Houston Texans and Minnesota Vikings.

The statement said nothing about the fan's condition, other than that he was taken to a Houston hospital.

Houston police spokesman Kese Smith said the incident happened at the north end of the stadium and that the fan's condition wasn't known.
