INDIANAPOLIS (AP) _ Police say a 24-year-old woman from Ohio has become the seventh person to die from injuries when a stage collapsed at the Indiana State Fair.

Indiana State Police say Meagan Toothman died late Sunday. She was among those injured when a powerful gust of wind toppled the stage onto fans who were waiting for the country act Sugarland to perform on Aug. 13.

Police say Toothman died from injuries suffered in the collapse, but didn’t release any details.

Toothman was head cheerleading coach at Turpin High School in Cincinnati, Ohio.
