1oldwrestler Posted October 19, 2010 Share Posted October 19, 2010 Someone may want to make sure the facts are correct but I heard Brock Norton was in a pretty serious accident yesterday at Purdue. Apparently he was hit by a car while skate boarding to class and he's in the hospital in pretty tough shape. I've heard specifics as to his injuries but don't feel comfortable listing those as I don't know his parents at all and it's probably appropriate if only they wish to share that info. Please keep him in your prayers if his situation is as stated. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Y2CJ41 Posted October 19, 2010 Share Posted October 19, 2010 Yes he was in a pretty serious accident yesterday morning. He had some internal injuries, but everything is stable now. He should be able to recover fully from all the injuries.

Y2CJ41 Posted October 20, 2010 Share Posted October 20, 2010 I just got an update. The best news is he didn't break a single bone in the accident, which is pretty damn remarkable! He is up and moving a little, but still strapped to a few machines. It sounds like everything is a good as it can be two days after being hit by a car.
