He remained on the scene until responding officers arrived to ensure her safety, Ragusa said in a statement.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size\">After the incident while traveling on a highway, Giuliani\u2019s vehicle was struck from behind at high speed, Ragusa said. His business partner and medical provider were contacted and arrived at the hospital to oversee his care.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size\">Ragusa later said in a statement on X: &#8220;He sustained injuries but is in good spirits and recovering tremendously. Thank you for the prayers&nbsp;&amp; support.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size\">He later followed up on his post, saying, &#8220;This was not a targeted attack. We ask everyone to respect Mayor Giuliani\u2019s privacy and recovery, and refrain from spreading unfounded conspiracy theories.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size\"><a href=\"https:\/\/abcnews.go.com\/Politics\/giuliani-injured-vehicle-accident-security-chief\/story?id=125142923\">abcnews<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Former&nbsp;New York&nbsp;Mayor Rudolph Giuliani was injured in a vehicle accident Saturday evening in New Hampshire, his security chief said in a statement on Sunday.
