Willie Nelson’s tour bus crash in storm
Willie Nelson’s band members were involved in a car accident due to a storm. The tour bus spun out of control in a storm and crashed into a Texas bridge pillar on Saturday morning near Sulphur Springs.
Nelson was not on the bus at the time, according to the musician’s website. Three of his band members were injured, one seriously.
Welson's website announced: "No one suffered serious injuries. Paul English injured his ankle, Billy English suffered a bruised hip and crew member Tom Hawkins has a cracked rib. The other family members on the bus are sore but everyone is expected to recover fully." According to Texas Department of Public Safety spokeswoman Sylvia Jennings, the weather at the time was both windy and icy, causing the bus to skid into a bridge pillar. The last four dates in November have been postponed and the tour resumes as scheduled in December
