NEW YORK (AP) -Brian McNamee, the personal trainer who has said he injected former Yankees pitcher Roger Clemens with steroids and human growth hormone, fainted while driving and crashed his car head-on into a city bus, a newspaper reported.
Brian McNamee told police he blacked out because of an ongoing medical problem and regained consciousness only as his Lexus hurtled into the bus Thursday in Queens, the Daily News reported Friday.
McNamee’s car rear-ended another auto before hitting the bus around 12:30 p.m. on Central Avenue in the Far Rockaway neighborhood, according to the newspaper.
McNamee was unhurt, and none of the five people on the bus was seriously injured, according to the newspaper. The other car’s driver was taken to a hospital with neck pain, the Daily News said.
McNamee testified under oath before a Congressional committee that he injected Clemens with performance-enhancers at least 16 times between 1998 and 2001. Clemens testified that he never used steroids or HGH, and he has sued McNamee, claiming defamation.
