A five-year-old girl fell nine metres from a ski lift at the popular Camp Fortune ski resort Saturday.

The girl sustained minor injuries and was transported to the Children's Hospital of Eastern Ontario. She has since been sent home with minor injuries.

Cst. Martin Fournel of the MRC-des-Collines said she was "lucky."

The girl was accompanied by an employee from the resort at the time she fell.

Police are investigating the incident.
