EUGENE, Ore. - One person was shot in the arm during a shooting at the Lane County Fair in Eugene, Oregon on Saturday afternoon, according to police.

Wesley Hicks, an Oregon resident who was about 20 yards away from the shooting, told Fox News that security guards quickly moved in when a fight broke out.
Another witness told KEZI that the gun went off when security tackled the man to the ground, and the bullet hit a female bystander in the arm after ricocheting off the ground.
Another video posted to Facebook showed hundreds of people exiting the fair after the shooting.
The Lane County Fair, which started on Wednesday and runs through Sunday, said on Facebook around noon that they "anticipate large crowds all throughout the day."
The fair reopened but the public was told to stay away from a roped-off crime scene. Grammy award-winning rapper Nelly was set to perform at 7:30 p.m. PT, but it is unclear if the show will go on.
