Love Island USA alum Taylor Williams injured at Scottsdale rodeo fall

Taylor Williams, a 25-year-old alum of Love Island USA, was injured Friday night after being thrown from his horse and briefly trapped beneath the animal during the Arizona Invitational Black Rodeo in Scottsdale, footage shared on social media shows. Video of the incident circulated Saturday and appears to show Williams falling from his mount after the horse tripped and rolled, with rodeo officials rushing to his aid and him later being taken to a hospital, according to social media posts and eyewitness video.

The clip shows another rider moving in front of Williams’ horse, causing the animal to stumble and fall. As the horse hit the ground it rolled and came to rest near or on top of Williams, who remained on the ground for several moments before assistance arrived. Organizers for the event did not immediately respond to requests for comment, and accounts vary on whether he was transported from the arena or from a nearby staging area, though Williams himself shared images indicating he received medical attention.

Williams posted updates on his Instagram Stories Saturday, thanking fans for their messages and sharing a photograph of himself on a stretcher wearing a neck brace....
