Former New York City mayor Rudy Giuliani was hospitalized on Saturday evening with a fractured vertebrae and additional injuries following a car accident in New Hampshire, according to a statement from his team.
Giuliani, 81, was hit in his car from behind on the highway “at high speed,” Michael Ragusa, Giuliani’s head of security, said.
Giuliani, President Donald Trump’s former campaign lawyer, was taken to a nearby trauma center and diagnosed with a fractured thoracic vertebrae, multiple lacerations and contusions, and injuries to his left arm and lower leg, the statement said.
“He sustained injuries but is in good spirits and recovering tremendously,” Ragusa said.
Giuliani had pulled over to help a woman who said she was the victim of domestic violence, Ragusa said.
