Maradona unhurt in car accident
BUENOS AIRES, July 12, Reuters:
Argentine great Diego Maradona escaped serious injury on Monday when his car was involved in a collision with a bus near his Buenos Aires home, local media and officials said.
Maradona, one of the greatest football players in history, underwent routine tests after the accident in the capital's Ezeiza suburb, hospital director Oscar Sico told local television.
Maradona's girlfriend was with him at the time and was also out of danger.
"The two are in a perfect condition, they've hardly suffered any injuries and they came to the hospital by themselves as a precautionary measure," Sico said.
The former player's mother is in hospital at the moment and local media said he was on his way to visit her when the accident took place.
