PTS Posted October 14, 2009 Share Posted October 14, 2009 Some bad news for the soccer fans on the board... Davis suffered a lacerated bladder, fractures to the tibia and femur bones in his right leg, facial fractures and a left elbow fracture. There's some photos out in other media reports of what's left of the car. It's amazing anyone inside survived. U.S. national team forward Charlie Davies was in serious condition Tuesday evening following a one-vehicle accident in which another person was killed. Davies underwent several hours of surgery at Washington Hospital Center Medstar. Hospital spokeswoman So Young Pak said Davies' condition was serious but offered no further details. U.S. Park Police Sgt. David Schlosser said the accident took place at about 3:15 a.m. in the southbound lanes of the George Washington Memorial Parkway in Virginia. Schlosser identified the fatality as Ashley J. Roberta, 22, of Phoenix, Md. Buethe initially said that Davies' injuries were "possibly" career-threatening but later clarified the remark. http://msn.foxsports.com/soccer/story/1021...-after-accident Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LongLiveRalph Posted October 14, 2009 Share Posted October 14, 2009 For more info, http://twitter.com/GrantWahl has been on this story since it first broke. And yeah, when you need two separate flatbeds to remove the car ... yeesh. Hard to believe 2 out of 3 survived looking at those photos. Have to imagine the back seat was the fatality. Incredibly tragic and incredibly lucky all at once. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
