Another freak accident has arrived at Bret Michaels’ doorstep.
The Rock Of Love star was involved in a crash over the holiday weekend after a car spun out of control and slammed into his tour bus. The incident marks Bret’s second scrape with danger in less than a month — coming just weeks after the star sustained a broken nose following his performance at the 63rd Annual Tony Awards in June.
According to a statement on Bret’s Official Website, the former Poison rocker, 46, was en route to St. Paul, Minn., after performing at Toronto’s Molson Amphitheater on Independence Day when a car “lost control and slid into the side of Mr. Michaels’s tour bus causing a five car pile-up on the roadway.”
“Michaels and his immediate crew were released from the scene following an investigation” by authorities, the site post read.
