By Andy Malt | Published on Friday 14 October 2016
Former My Chemical Romance guitarist Frank Iero has assured fans that he, his new band and their crew are OK after a bus crashed into their tour van in Sydney. Frank Iero And The Patience were due to play a show in the city yesterday, which was cancelled following the accident.
According to 9 News, the bus was not carrying any passengers at the time, but two men were treated for serious injuries, with one airlifted to a nearby hospital. The incident occurred outside Twitter’s Australian HQ, where the band were arriving for a live session performance.
In a tweet, Iero said: “We’re pretty banged up but miraculously alive and in stable condition. I’m still in a state of shock”.
