Rudy Giuliani seriously injured in New Hampshire car wreck after helping domestic violence victim

Former New York City Mayor Rudy Giuliani was seriously injured in a freak car accident in New Hampshire on Saturday night, a rep said.

Giuliani, 81, was hospitalized with a fractured vertebrae and multiple cuts and bruises, including injuries specifically to his left arm and lower leg, after his rent-a-car was hit from behind, spokesman Michael Ragusa said Sunday.

“Mayor Giuliani was flagged down by a woman who was a victim of domestic violence prior to the accident. He rendered assistance and contacted 911, remaining on scene until responding officers arrived to ensure her safety,” said Ragusa, Giuliani’s head of security.

“The accident occurred after he re-entered his vehicle, which was then hit from behind at high speed.”

Ragusa said Giuilani, who was mayor from 1994 through 2001, is recovering and in good spirts.

“The mayor is in great spirits. He’s a beast. He survived 9/11,” Ragusa said.

Okay, anyone want to guess what really happened?

Oh no! Rudy was too much of a good Samaritan! LOL.

Like how Ted Kennedy drove his car off the Chappaquiddick bridge to save a drowning kitten or something.

(And lest I'm being too sarcastic, I don't wish any injury on the man and I do hope he recovers appropriately)

No conspiracy here. Sadly, cars on the side of the road are rear ended far to often in NH.

He's lucky he survived.

I'm a bit confused.

The report states that Guiliani had re-entered his car, which was then hit, from behind, at high speed.

This type of accident could easily explain the fractured vertebrae he suffered. Especially given his age.

But it does not explain the injuries ("cuts and bruises") to his left arm and lower leg.

Was Rudy "side-swipped",  as well as rear-ended?

Did he not have "both hands and feet inside the ride at all times"?

[UltraBudgie]

He may have been old-man merging back in to freeway-speed traffic. Thus a rear/side impact.

It was around Manchester, which is the one part of 93 where people don't annoyingly drive on or under the speed limit.

All speculation.

Police statement:

NH State Police Investigating Crash Involving Former NYC Mayor
Troop B

MANCHESTER, N.H. – The New Hampshire State Police is investigating a crash that left three people injured, including a passenger identified as former New York City Mayor Rudy Giuliani.

Just before 10 p.m. on Saturday, Aug. 30, 2025, Troopers assigned to the Troop B barracks were investigating a reported domestic violence incident on Interstate 93 southbound in Manchester when a two-vehicle crash occurred across from them on the northbound side of the interstate. As a result of the collision, both vehicles went into the median and were heavily damaged.

Troopers and fire personnel, who were at the scene of the first incident, witnessed the collision and quickly crossed the interstate to render aid.

The on-scene investigation determined that a Honda HR-V, driven by Lauren Kemp, 19, of Concord, struck the back of a Ford Bronco, driven by Theodore Goodman, of Michigan. Kemp and Goodman, as well as Giuliani, Goodman’s passenger, suffered non-life-threatening injuries and were taken by ambulance to area hospitals for treatment.

Lanes on both sides of the interstate were closed for approximately one hour while the crash was investigated.

No charges have been filed at this time and all aspects of the crash remain under investigation. Anyone with information that may assist the investigation is asked to contact Sgt. Mark Dore at [redacted].

Weird, so did G-man have anything to do with the reason the cops were there in the first place? This is written as if they're unrelated incidents and the accident was a coincidence.

Only the NYPost(rated mixed factuality by mediabiasfactcheck) seems to spin G as a hero.

My guess: the cops were on one side of a divided highway investigating a domestic incident.

G and crew saw something happening as they were on the other bound side. They pulled over to rubber neck and when done rubber necking started pulling back into the highway and didn't use proper caution. I think that traffic already cruising down the highway has the right of way.

-------
Correction: AP says G was flagged down too.

Looks like unconfirmed claim,

Prior to the accident, Giuliani had been “flagged down by a woman who was the victim of a domestic violence incident” and contacted police assistance on her behalf, Ragusa said. [ Ragusa is G's head of security/spokesperson, not a witness ]
...
 
New Hampshire State Police declined to comment on whether Giuliani had contacted the agency regarding the account of a domestic violence incident.
 
Goodman[ the driver ] did not respond to requests for comment and Giuliani’s team did not provide additional details about the circumstances surrounding the crash.

Rudy Giuliani injured in New Hampshire car crash, his spokesperson says

So G told Ragusa what to say, and neither State Police nor Goodman have confirmed or denied.

well they're repeating the statement from his security detail, which i guess i'll post here:

what you describe sounds plausible to me, although i wonder why they would stop to rubberneck? it doesn't seem very security-conscious to stop for random people flagging cars down. also was g there before the cops arrived, then pulled out across the median when he saw them arriving? you'd think the police statement would have mentioned it if he was helping there when they arrived.

you'd think the police statement would have mentioned it if he was helping there when they arrived.

Only the cops and 911 operator know for sure.
The question is will they stay silent?

plus: I added a correction to previous post.

I-93 is a divided highway.  Giuliani was in a car traveling northbound on I-93.  A woman across the median on the other side of the highway was waving and attracting attention, claiming she was the victim of domestic abuse. Guiliani wasn't driving, so probably told his driver to stop.  He "rendered assistance" by calling the cops.  They might already have been called; who knows? Whenever I've done this kind of thing, the cops have already been contacted. After the cops arrived Giuliani and whoever else had stopped on the other side of the highway decided to resume their travel north.  Whoever was driving the car he was in pulled out onto the highway and got rear-ended/side swiped.  Sounds like it was the fault of Guiliani's driver. Personally, I think Guiliani is the scum of the earth, but it sounds like he was an innocent victim here.
