Rudolph W. Giuliani, the former mayor of New York and a prominent lawyer for President Trump, was involved in a serious automobile collision on Saturday.
The incident occurred when another vehicle forcefully slammed into the back of the car in which he was a passenger. The high-speed impact resulted in significant damage to both vehicles.
Following the crash, Giuliani was transported to a trauma center for immediate medical attention. His primary diagnosis was a fractured thoracic vertebra, a severe injury to one of the bones that make up the spinal column.
In addition to the spinal injury, he sustained multiple lacerations and contusions. The event has drawn considerable public attention, given Giuliani's status as a high-profile and often controversial political figure.
His spokesperson stated that the crash was not a targeted attack and asked for privacy while Giuliani recovers from his significant injuries. [1, 4, 7]
