Incident occurred October 17, 2015 at Skydive DeLand • DeLand Municipal Airport (KDED), Volusia County, Florida

A man was injured while skydiving at Skydive DeLand Saturday afternoon, Deland Police said.

Police said a man, whose identity was not released, was taken to Halifax Health Medical Center around 3 p.m. after a hard landing and possibly broke his leg while skydiving.

This is the fourth incident this year at the facility, which resides near the DeLand Municipal Airport. In June, a man was airlifted to the hospital with injuries after taking a hard landing. A 33-year-old woman died in a sky-diving accident in April and in January a Navy SEAL died after an accident during a training exercise.
