Tom Brokaw Involved in Fatal Car Accident
Former NBC News anchor Tom Brokaw was reportedly involved in a three-car accident that fatally injured one person on Friday.
CBS News reports that Brokaw and his wife, Meredith, were not injured in the accident in New York and released the following statement about the crash:
"The Brokaws were in the far left lane when they noticed a spool of cable bouncing along the far right lane. Just then, a green SUV in the right lane came up fast and tried to avoid the cable. The driver lost control of her vehicle and slid into the middle lane, forcing a mail truck into the Brokaw lane of traffic.
