Ogbonna unharmed after car accident

December 22, 2008

Torino defender Angelo Ogbonna escaped unharmed after his car fell from a bridge into a river, the club confirmed on Monday.

Poor visibility saw Ogbonna lose control of his Smart car while returning from his team's 1-0 home triumph against Napoli on Sunday evening in the vicinity of Turin.

The 20-year-old defender was rescued by police and was conscious and responsive as he was taken to a nearby hospital for observation.

Ogbonna was diagnosed with thoracic trauma but tests have excluded any fractures.
