A young girl was bitten in the leg at an Orange County park on Saturday, officials said.

The girl was at Moss Park near Lake Hart, according to Orange County Fire Rescue.

She was bitten in the leg, said fire rescue spokeswoman Ngoc Huynh.

By the time an ambulance got to the park about 12:45 p.m., the girl had already been taken to the hospital, Huynh said.

It’s unclear the severity of her injuries.

The park is flanked by two large lakes, Lake Hart and Lake Mary Jane, but it’s not clear whether the child was swimming.
