A Tales Of The Walking Dead crew member has been hospitalized after “falling off a riverboat and hitting a railing before plunging into the lake” in an accident investigated by OSHA.
An accident alleged to have occurred on the set of Tales Of The Walking Dead in Atlanta, Georgia on Monday is under investigation.
A female crew member reportedly fell from the top deck of a riverboat used for filming – the same one that serves as the casino boat on the Netflix show Ozark.
According to Deadline, the crew member fell into Stone Mountain Lake and hit a railing on the lower deck on the way down.

She is said to be a member of the International Alliance Of Theatrical Stage Employees (IATSE), a union that has expanded beyond theater to include showbiz in general.
Now the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) has begun investigating the alleged incident, which caused filming to be suspended until Tuesday before resuming on Wednesday.
The crew member, who is said to have recently undergone surgery, has not been publicly identified by OSHA, IATSE or the production company, nor has any information about their current condition been released.
A spokesman for the U.S. Department of Labor said, “OSHA has opened an investigation into this incident and as such we have no further disclosures at this time.”
