George Michael Suffers Cuts and Bruises Following M1 Car Crash

Michael is flown to a trauma center with
suspicion of head injury after his Range Rover
experienced a single-car crash in M1
motorway.
George Michael
was a passenger
in a single-car
accident which
took place in
U.K. on
Thursday, May
16. Daily Mail
reported that an
air ambulance
took him to a
trauma center
because he was
suspected
having a head
injury. Michael
thankfully only suffered minor injuries and was
released from hospital after receiving
treatment.
A spokesperson for Michael, Connie Filippello,
confirmed that the singer was involved in an
accident. "George Michael was a passenger in a
vehicle involved in a traffic accident yesterday
evening. No third party was involved,"
Filippello said. She added that Michael had
"superficial cuts" and was "fine" after the
crash.
Michael's boyfriend Fadi Fawaz made a similar
statement to the news outlet, "He is perfectly
fine. Of course I was worried, but I have
spoken to him and he is good. He suffered a
few bruises but there is nothing to worry
about. I have no idea what happened, I wasn't
there."
Ambulance spokesman Gary Sanderson
revealed the situation after the crash, "The
man who we believe to be in his 40s sustained
a head injury and following treatment,
stabilization and immobilization by land and
air ambulance crews, he was flown to hospital
for further care."
A police spokesman said that the case is being
investigated and he would not reveal further
details, including the identity of the driver.
"The exact circumstances of what happened
are unclear at this time and until further
investigations have been carried out it would
be inappropriate for us to comment further,"
he said.
In September 2010, Michael was arrested in
Hampstead, north London and was given an
eight-week jail sentence after crashing his car
into a store. He was also fined as much as
1,250 pound sterling and banned from driving
for five years.
