Rolling Stones' Richards suffers concussion
 Rolling Stones guitarist Keith Richards is being treated for head injuries in New Zealand after being hurt while on holiday in Fiji. The 62-year-old was airlifted to a private Auckland hospital after falling from a coconut tree. Richards was holidaying with his wife and other members of the Rolling Stones on an island resort in Fiji after the Australasian leg of their latest world tour when the accident occurred on Thursday. Richards was flown initially to Suva for treatment but later transferred to a private hospital in Auckland for further tests. A spokesman for the band, Bernard Docherty, has confirmed the guitarist suffered concussion and will remain in hospital for a few days. The Rolling Stones are scheduled to kick off the European leg of their Bigger Bang tour at the end of next month.
