US Sen. Fetterman and wife get into crash on I-70 in Hagerstown

Both Fetterman and his wife have been released from the hospital.

HAGERSTOWN, Md. — U.S. Senator John Fetterman (D-PA) and his wife have both been released from the hospital after getting into a crash on Sunday.

Editor's Note: The above video is from a different hospitalization involving Fetterman over a year ago.

Just before 8 a.m. Sunday morning, troopers responded to the area of westbound Interstate 70 at Interstate 68 for a crash involving two cars. Investigators say Fetterman was driving a Chevrolet Traverse when he rear-ended a driver behind the wheel of a Chevrolet Impala. Both drivers were heading west on the highway. A passenger in the Traverse and the driver of the Impala were both taken to an area hospital to be evaluated. 

Fetterman and his office released statements following the collision.

"On Sunday morning, John and Gisele were involved in a car accident with another driver. Out of an abundance of caution, they were evaluated at a local hospital. John was treated for a bruised shoulder and they were discharged that afternoon. They are doing well and happy to be back in Braddock," said his office.

Fetterman posted on X, "You might have heard G and I were in a car accident yesterday. Thank you all for the well wishes. Not the best way to spend our 16th wedding anniversary but we’re doing well and happy to be back home in Braddock with the family."
