Ali treated for neck and back condition
BERRIEN SPRINGS, Mich. — Muhammad Ali was treated for a back and neck condition, and is now undergoing follow-up physical therapy.
Ali spokesman Craig Bankey said Thursday that the former heavyweight champion, treated at Emory University in Atlanta, will return to his regular routine of public appearances when therapy is completed.
Ali will be at the grand opening of the Muhammad Ali Center in Louisville, Ky., on Nov. 19, Bankey said in a statement. Ali’s office was responding to recent published reports concerning his health.
The 63-year-old Ali has Parkinson’s disease. “Like Parkinson’s patients around the world, Muhammad faces challenges each day,” Bankey said. “He continues to fight Parkinson’s disease with the same courage and dedication he brought to the ring and to his work aimed at alleviating poverty, hunger and intolerance.”
Bus carrying football team overturns in Texas
ROYSE CITY, Texas — A bus carrying members of a high school football team overturned Thursday in suburban Dallas, injuring at least eight players, according to television reports.
Television footage showed at least eight players, dressed in their uniforms, lying on the ground near the crash site while being treated. Ambulances and medical helicopters were at the scene.
The bus came to rest on its side along a road in rural Collin County, northeast of Dallas.
