Senator John Fetterman and wife hospitalized after Maryland car crash
US Senator John Fetterman and his wife Giselle were hospitalized after being involved in a car crash in Maryland.
Fetterman, a Democrat from Pennsylvania, was driving a Chevrolet Traverse that struck the rear of a Chevrolet Impala on I-70 on Sunday, said Maryland State Police.
According to his office, Fetterman suffered a bruised shoulder in the incident and both he and his wife were discharged on Sunday afternoon.
No details were given on any injuries suffered by Giselle Fetterman.
Officials say that a passenger in Fetterman’s vehicle, as well as the driver of the Impala, were both taken by ambulance to War Memorial Hospital in West Virginia for medical evaluation.
“On Sunday morning, John and Gisele were involved in a car accident with another driver. Out of an abundance of caution, they were evaluated at a local hospital. John was treated for a bruised shoulder and they were discharged that afternoon. They are doing well and happy to be back in Braddock,” a spokesperson for Fetterman’s office told Fox News.
An investigation into the accident is ongoing and no citations have been issued to anyone involved, said police.
