As seen in the clip shared by TV Insider, Luke Bryan took a brief pause after getting hit, but quickly resumed the performance and finished the show.According to KFYR News, sheriff's deputies arrived at the area where the object was thrown shortly after Bryan was struck. However, the outlet stated that it was unclear what exactly happened, whether the deputies investigated whether the incident was intentional, or whether anyone was removed from the venue.Later that night, Captain Jason Kraft of the Ward County Sheriff's Office confirmed that they hadn't yet identified the individual who threw the object at Luke Bryan's face.
