Rudy Giuliani, 81, was struck from behind at high speed on a New Hampshire highway and taken to a nearby trauma center with a fractured thoracic vertebra, multiple lacerations, contusions, and injuries to his left arm and lower leg. His business partner and medical provider arrived to oversee his care. He remains fully alert and conscious, with medical staff pleased with his progress and describing him as in good spirits and recovering. The incident was not considered a targeted attack. Before the crash, he had been flagged down by a woman involved in a domestic violence incident and remained on scene until law enforcement arrived.
"He was transported to a nearby trauma center, where he was diagnosed with a fractured thoracic vertebrae, multiple lacerations and contusions, as well as injuries to his left arm and lower leg," Ragusa wrote on social media. "His business partner and medical provider were promptly contacted and arrived at the hospital to oversee his care." Although Giuliani was injured, he is "in good spirits and recovering tremendously," he said.
"Giuliani is "fully alert and conscious, and his medical team is pleased with his progress," Ragusa said in a statement to NPR on Sunday evening. "The Mayor is eager to return to his work and looks forward to getting back to business in just a few days," he added. Before the accident, Giuliani had been "flagged down" by a woman who was involved in a domestic violence incident and he "immediately rendered assistance and contacted 911," Ragusa also stated.
