Harry Reid's Family Tragedy

Oh man...

Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid's wife and daughter were in a serious car accident Thursday afternoon on Interstate 95 in Fairfax County, and police said they were treated at an area hospital for non-life threatening injuries.

Police said the Reids' van was rear-ended and crushed by a fully loaded tractor-trailer while driving in heavy traffic.

"Mrs. Reid has a broken nose, broken back and broken neck. Lana has a neck injury and facial lacerations. Both Mrs. Reid and Lana are conscious, can feel their extremities, and according to doctors their injuries are non-life threatening," Jon Summers, a spokesman for Sen. Reid (D-Nev.), said in a statement late Thursday afternoon.

"Senator Reid has been to the hospital and appreciates the support he and his family are receiving from Nevadans and his colleagues in the Senate," Summers said.

My heart goes out to him and his family.

This is just breaking my heart. Jennifer Hudson has lost her mother and her brother in a horrible way. Now she is hoping we can help her find her nephew.

Our girl is using myspace and other outlets. I hope they can find him soon. This tragedy has to end. I can't imagine what she is going through right now.

This is her message

"Please keep praying for our family and that we get Julian King back home safely. If anyone has any information about his whereabouts please contact the authorities immediately."

Hudson and her family are offering a $100,000 reward her nephew's safe return.
