John Kerry injured in cycling accident in France
[Guardian] The US secretary of state, John Kerry, was in a stable condition in a Geneva hospital after being injured in an accident while cycling near Scionzier, France, his spokesman has said.

Kerry, 71, was transported by helicopter to a hospital in Geneva, where he was being examined, spokesman John Kirby said.

"Secretary Kerry is stable and likely suffered a leg injury. He did not lose consciousness," Kirby added.

Kerry suffered the accident near Scionzier, France, 25 miles (40km) south-east of the Swiss border. Paramedics and a physician were on the scene with his motorcade at the time.

A paramedic travelling with his motorcade immediately examined the secretary after his bike apparently hit a kerb, causing the fall, Kirby said. Kerry was transported to Geneva's main hospital, HUG, where he was being evaluated. X-rays were being taken of his right leg.
Update from An Nahar at 9:45: Secretary of State Kerry is being sent home for treatment by the doctor who did his hip surgery, and will miss discussions in Spain on the new Marine base and in Paris on ISIS.
