JAY LENO IN MOTORCYCLE ACCIDENT MONTHS AFTER SUFFERING “SERIOUS BURNS”
Months after Jay Leno suffered “serious burns” in a gasoline fire while working on one of his vehicles, the comedian said he broke several bones in a motorcycle accident.
Leno, 72, was “knocked off” a motorcycle on Jan. 17 by a wire strung across a parking lot, breaking two ribs, two kneecaps, and a collarbone, he told the Las Vegas Review Journal
Leno said that he went out for a test drive on a 1940 Indian motorcycle and recognized the smell of a gas leak.
“I turned down a side street and cut through a parking lot, and unbeknownst to me, some guy had a wire strung across the parking lot but with no flag hanging from it,” Leno told the Review-Journal.
