Stunt injuries on ‘9-1-1’ production

Overview

Actor Oliver Stark sustained a broken ankle requiring surgery during a stunt sequence for the tenth season of the ABC drama ‘9-1-1’. The accident occurred in late August while Stark was performing a scene involving a transition from a car to a ladder truck. Reports indicate that a stunt double had previously injured an ankle while practicing the same maneuver but did not seek medical treatment.

Stark is one of several performers reported injured during recent production. Other reported incidents include a stunt performer requiring stitches for an arm injury caused by jagged metal, and another performer being hospitalized with a broken rib and a minor compressed lung following a mishap on a simulated ground collapse platform.

The series of accidents has raised concerns regarding safety protocols on the production, particularly following the 2024 death of crew member Rico Priem after working a 14-hour overnight shift.
