Has anyone ever ran down a bowling alley and was injured from the machinery used to place the pins?

I'm doing a persuasive essay on how bowling is the best sport and I'm putting how it is particularly safe, but I read an article that about bowling and says "no one has ran down an alley and gotten injured from the machinery" is that true? I want to put that(not exact words) in my essay, but I don't want to put something that is false! Does anyone know? Have you seen someone get "attacked" by the machinery? Or just run down the alley and fall on their butt? Should I just not worry about it? Please help me!(Essay due Monday, early morning!)

    Well lets say I have seen a video of someone running down the lane and knocking the pins over but the machine was turned off. And also where I bowl someone went down to reset the pins and didn't know they had put in sensors to recycle the pins and he was raked back into where the pins would go. But he got out and wasn't hurt. But he was very lucky because there are a Lot of moving parts and he could have been hurt.
