George Clooney injured in motorcycle accident
George Clooney and girlfriend Sarah Larson were treated at a hospital Friday for injuries after the motorcycle they were riding was hit by a car in New Jersey. Clooney, 46, suffered a hairline fracture of a rib and road rash, and Larson, 28, suffered a broken foot, his rep says. They were treated at Palisades Medical Center in North Bergen, N.J., and released. According to police, Clooney was driving his Harley-Davidson when he collided with a 1999 Mazda Millenia that allegedly attempted to make a right turn from the left lane. Larson appeared to have cuts on her face and an injury to her foot and was taken away by ambulance, said a Weehawken police sergeant. Clooney drove away from the scene on his motorcycle and apparently met Larson at the hospital. The Mazda driver was uninjured. Clooney told police he was driving in the right lane when the other driver sped up to try and pass him before making the right turn, but the Mazda driver claims it was Clooney who was trying to pass cars in the right lane. The crash remains under investigation.
