Authorities said Wednesday golfer Tiger Woods was speeding when he crashed an SUV in southern California less than two months ago, leaving the superstar seriously injured. AP's Ed Donahue reports. The speed limit of the scene of the crash outside Los Angeles is 45 miles per hour. "Estimated speeds at the first area of impact were 84 to 87 mph. In the final estimated speed when the vehicle struck the tree was 75 mph. Sheriff Alex Villanueva blames the crash solely1 on excessive speed and Woods' loss of control behind the wheel. "There were no citations2 issued ...." The sheriff says Tiger Woods did not get special treatment. "There was no signs of impairment. Our primary concern once we obviously at the scene of the collision was his safety." Tiger Woods broke bones in his right leg and is in Florida recovering from multiple surgeries.I'm Ed Donahue.
A lawyer for imprisoned3 Russian opposition4 leader Alexi Navalny says doctors have found he is suffering from two spinal5 hernias. Vadim Kobzev has told the Interfax news agency Wednesday that Navalny also has a spinal protrusion6 and is beginning to lose sensation in his hands. Navalny went on a hunger strike last week to protest what he called poor medical care in a Russian prison. The 44-year-old Navalny is President Vladimir Putin's harshest critic. He was arrested in January after returning from Germany, where he was undergoing treatment for a nerve agent poisoning, which he blames on the Kremlin. Russian authorities have denied the accusation7.
