Legendary Singer Diana Ross Injured In a Car Crash

BETHLEHEM, Pa. (AP) — Police say Diana Ross was injured when an SUV ran a stop sign and crashed into a limo taking her to a performance in Pennsylvania.

Bethlehem police say the 72-year-old singer complained of head and neck pain after the crash on Wednesday afternoon. She was treated at the scene by paramedics and indicated she would seek further treatment on her own.

No one else was hurt. The Lincoln Town Car she was in was towed.

The former member of the Supremes performed as scheduled at the Sands casino complex in Bethlehem later Wednesday.

Police said Thursday that the SUV driver, a 22-year-old New Jersey woman, received a traffic citation.

Currently, Ross is scheduled to perform in the Bay Area in July 2016. Dates include July 7th at Wente Vineyards in Livermore, July 10th at Mountain Winery in Saratoga and July 12th at the Orpheum Theatre in San Francisco.
