U2 frontman Bono “high-energy bicycle accident” Central Park, NY November 17, 2014
U2 frontman Bono has undergone five hours of surgery after breaking his arm in six places and suffering a broken eye socket falling off his bike in New York. X-rays and CT scans showed that Bono had suffered numerous serious injuries, including a “facial fracture involving the orbit of his eye” and three separate fractures of his left shoulder blade. The fracture of the left humerus bone in his upper arm was said to be particularly serious, as it broke in six places and pierced the skin, requiring five hours of surgery. Lorich said Bono was “taken emergently [sic] to the operating room … where the elbow was washed out and debrided, a nerve trapped in the break was moved and the bone was repaired with three metal plates and 18 screws.” On Monday Bono then underwent further surgery to fix a broken little finger. Bono had just returned to New York after recording Band Aid 30 in London on Saturday. It is unclear whether his injuries will affect U2’s plans for a 2015 tour following the release of their album Songs of Innocence.
