Phelps involved in two-car collision
BALTIMORE — Baltimore police say Olympic gold medal-winning swimmer Michael Phelps has been in a two-car collision but not injured.
Police spokesman Anthony Guglielmi says Phelps was driving a late-model Cadillac Escalade on Thursday night when it and a Honda Accord collided at an intersection near downtown Baltimore.
Guglielmi says the female driver of the Accord was "shaken up" and taken to a local hospital as a precaution.
He says two passengers in Phelps’ car were not injured.
Guglielmi says Phelps has been interviewed by police and alcohol was not a factor.
Phelps won eight gold medals at the Beijing Olympics.
At the scene, a black SUV with a crumpled hood was on a tow truck. The gray Accord had considerable damage on the front driver side.
