One Direction fan injured outside studio

A teenage One Direction fan has been injured outside of the X Factor studio in a rush to see the boyband.

According to The Sun, the girl was amongst a group of supporters who had rushed to the side of the contestants' taxi as they pulled up at the building, and was hurt when the cab accidentally ran over her foot.

She was then treated at the site by ambulance crews, before being stretchered to an ambulance for hospital treatment.

The girl's friend later posted on Twiter: "OMG, my friend went to the X Factor Studios today and the car that One Direction were in ran over her foot and now she's in hospital (sic)."

An X Factor spokesperson said: "As it's half-term there are more people outside the studio than usual. The incident was dealt with swiftly by paramedics."

They added: "Security and welfare of the contestants and the public's safety is of paramount importance to us."
