A kite surfer was hospitalized Sunday after losing control in the air and colliding with a building in Palm Beach, Fla.

The surfer, who has not been identified, was swept into the lakeside one-story building as strong winds gusting as high as 31 mph buffeted the area, The Palm Beach Post reported.

A West Palm Beach police spokeswoman said the surfer was taken to nearby St. Mary's Medical Center after complaining of pain.

There was no damage to the building, the spokeswoman added.
