Rudolph W. Giuliani was injured in a car accident in New Hampshire on Saturday evening and taken to a hospital with a fractured vertebra, according to the head of security for the former mayor of New York City and lawyer for President Trump. A person close to Mr. Giuliani said he was expected to recover.
Mr. Giuliani, 81, was traveling on a highway after having stopped to help a “woman who was the victim of a domestic violence incident,” Michael Ragusa, Mr. Giuliani’s security official, said in a social media post. He did not offer additional information about the incident, including where in New Hampshire it occurred or whether Mr. Giuliani was behind the wheel. Mr. Giuliani called 911 and waited with the woman until help arrived, Mr. Ragusa said.
When Mr. Giuliani resumed his journey, his vehicle was struck from behind “at high speed,” Mr. Ragusa said. Mr. Giuliani was taken to an undisclosed hospital. He was diagnosed with a fractured thoracic vertebra, injuries to his leg and left arm, and contusions and lacerations, Mr. Ragusa said.
