Her tires hit a little stone while she was on the downhill, the tires kept shaking left and right and she couldn't control her bicycle, then she fell down and she slammed on the ground. Fortunately, her friend heard a loud cry and took her to the hospital immediately. The doctor said she was bumped off half tooth and resulted mild concussion.
