WACO (1080 KRLD) - Former Florida Congressman Allen West, now a Texas resident, is out of the hospital after being treated for broken bones, cuts and a concussion suffered in a weekend motorcycle crash on I-35 about 20 miles north of Waco.
West and a friend were riding their motorcycles back from Austin on Saturday when a driver cut them off, causing the two motorcycles to collide and injuring West.
He was released from a Waco hospital yesterday with both arms heavily bandaged and one in a sling.
In a video on his Facebook page, West joked about the road rash on his face, saying "they're making a new Scar Face movie and I'm going to be starring in it."
West is a candidate to become chairman of the Texas Republican Party and says this accident will not stop his efforts.
