The Dillinger Escape Plan, currently on the European leg of their farewell tour, were in a serious accident in Poland yesterday when a truck hit their bus from behind.
Thirteen people were injured in the crash and were sent to the hospital. Dillinger’s bus was parked when the accident happened, partially on the road and a shoulder, according to ITV.
The most seriously injured person was the driver of the truck, although the extent of those injuries has not yet been revealed. It appears that the band members and their crew are all OK save for some minor injuries according to Aneta Wlazlowska, a spokeswoman for Radomsko police, and that the hospital trip is mostly precautionary.
Metal Injection got in touch with Dillinger guitarist Ben Weinman, who gave the following update:
I spoke with Dillinger Escape Plan guitarist Ben Weinman about the current situation, and he said “Everyone is alive, a few injuries, but it could be much worse.” He explained that the bus was hit from the back, with the truck smashing through their gear before continuing to plow into the bus itself.
Tonight’s show in Krakow has been canceled and the rest of the tour is in doubt. While the band members seem to have escaped the accident intact, if the above photo (provided by Weinman) is any indication, their gear was completely destroyed.
La nota es tomada de Metal Injection, todos salieron ilesos,
La mujer de Ben esta bien, también, justamente esta embarazada.
Fue tenaz el susto
