Director Steven Spielberg hurt in scooter accident

Published 12:40 p.m. PST Friday, Dec. 7, 2001
LOS ANGELES (AP) - Director Steven Spielberg is recovering from minor injuries sustained in a scooter accident last week, his spokesman said Friday.
The 54-year-old filmmaker, whose famous image from "E.T. The Extra-Terrestrial" involved a bicycle flying from a cliff, toppled off the scooter near his home in the Hamptons in New York several days after Thanksgiving.

He twisted his knee, but did not suffer any broken bones or head injuries, spokesman Marvin Levy said.

Spielberg has a brace on his knee, but is otherwise in good health and no surgery is believed necessary to repair the joint, Levy added.

The director is currently in postproduction on his Tom Cruise sci-fi adventure "Minority Report" and preproduction on the con-artist drama "Catch Me If You Can."

The injury is not expected to interfere with his work, Levy said.
