A Disney on Ice skater fell mid-performance after a co-performer dropped her during the "Beauty and the Beast" show at Target Center over the weekend.

On Saturday, 31-year-old Anastasia Olson was performing a paired ice skating routine as part of the "Beauty and the Beast" Disney on Ice show when her partner accidentally dropped her during a lift, resulting in Olson falling and getting injured, per Star Tribune.

According to a now-deleted Reddit post, the Beast actor allegedly stumbled into the side during a lift and dropped Olson, who portrayed Belle, on the ice. After that, Olson started suffering a seizure, so she had to be carried on a stretcher.

In the post's attached video, Oslon could be seen struggling with a seizure while lying on ice. The Beast performer and the medics were also seen hovering and rushing to her side.

Beka, a mom in the audience, said that the Belle performer looked "shaky" before she fell during the lift.

"They were doing a lift. She appeared shaky, and she fell," she told the New York Post, adding that the incident happened 40 minutes into the 11 a.m. show.

After the incident, Olson was immediately taken to Hennepin County Medical Center in Minneapolis for treatment.

In an update issued Monday via Star Tribune, authorities said Olson's condition went from critical to serious.

No other information about the ice skater was released.

Meanwhile, Disney on Ice said it appreciates the support and well-wishes fans showed and sent to Olson while she remained in the hospital.

"Disney on Ice appreciates the well wishes from our fans as our team member recovers," Feld Entertainment, the company that produces the show, said in a statement to the same news outlet.

Disney on Ice performances at the downtown Minneapolis arena continued as scheduled following the incident.

Olson has always shown her appreciation for her job as a Disney on Ice performer.

In March 2022, she took to Instagram to share this message about her work: "How blessed am I to have this job."

A year later, in May 2023, the ice skater shared another appreciation post for her job.

"...I am so honored to have been a small part of it," she captioned her post at the time.
