Hockey legend Jaromir Jagr reveals car accident involving tram; admits it was his fault
Jaromir Jagr, one of the greatest players to ever play the game of hockey, has issued a statement after getting into a car accident in Prague, in his home country of the Czech Republic. Jagr was hit by a tram that runs through the city. Paramedics attended the scene of the accident, but Jagr managed to escape without major injuries. Jagr described the crash in his statement while also admitting it was his fault.
"Dear fans, but also everyone else. I would just like to briefly tell you what happened today when I was involved in a traffic accident. It was my fault. I was trying to cross from one direction to the other on Plzeňská Street. I was checking the other side and at the right moment I drove into it. But there was a lot of traffic and I didn't have time to react to a tram that was going at high speed in the same direction as me. I spotted it half a metre in front of me, at the last moment. I thought that was the end of me. I have always believed that a higher power has a protective hand over me, and today I was convinced of that again. Thank God! And I was also surprised and actually saved by my KIA, which despite how scary it looked, I climbed out of unharmed. But most importantly, the passengers on the tram were unharmed. I would like to end this sad event with this. And thank you all for your understanding and also for helping those who intervened at the scene." - Jaromir Jagr, Instagram
