Rudy Giuliani Hospitalized With Fractured Vertebra After Rear-End Crash in New Hampshire

Police are investigating the high-speed collision that also injured two others.

Overview

  • Giuliani’s SUV was struck from behind at high speed on a Manchester-area highway on Aug. 30, sending him to a trauma center with a fractured thoracic vertebra, lacerations and contusions.
  • He had just stopped to help a woman reporting domestic violence, called 911 and waited for officers before re-entering the vehicle.
  • He was a passenger in a rented Ford Bronco driven by spokesman Ted Goodman; police identified the other driver as Lauren Kemp, 19, of Concord, and said both vehicles were heavily damaged.
  • New Hampshire State Police say three people, including Goodman and Kemp, were taken to hospitals with non-life-threatening injuries, and the crash remains under investigation with no charges reported.
  • Giuliani is described as in good spirits, expected to remain hospitalized for a few days and then wear a brace, with medical oversight from business partner and nurse Maria Ryan; his security chief says the crash was not a targeted attack.
