Harry Reid’s wife Landra Reid and daughter Lana Reid seriously injured in car accident
I am obviously not a fan of Harry Reid. Actually, I can’t even stand the man. However, I would never wish ill will on him, or his family. So the news that his wife Landra Reid and daughter Lana Reid were seriously injured in a car accident today is not something I am happy to post about. There will obviously be some that will cheer this news, but I simply refuse to sink to that level. According to Politico, Landra Reid, suffered a broken neck, back and nose and his daughter, Lana Reid, also sustained serious injuries in a chain-reaction car accident in Fairfax, Va. on Thursday according to Reid’s spokesman.
Both women’s injuries are considered serious but not life-threatening — and both have sensation in their extremities, an indication that they aren’t paralyzed, Reid spokesman Jon Summers said.
“They are being treated at a Washington-area hospital. While driving on a Washington, DC, highway, their vehicle was rear-ended by a semi-truck,” Summers wrote in an email.
“Mrs. Reid has a broken nose, broken back and broken neck. Lana has a neck injury and facial lacerations. Both Mrs. Reid and Lana are conscious, can feel their extremities, and according to doctors their injuries are non-life threatening. Senator Reid has been to the hospital and appreciates the support he and his family are receiving from Nevadans and his colleagues in the Senate.”
Reid was pulled out of a meeting and was rushed to the hospital to visit them but was expected to return to the Senate this evening, aides said.
The majority leader, 70, met Landra, 69, when both attended high school in Henderson, Nev. They were married in 1959.
