Officers who witnessed the accident treated the alert and conscious 91-year-old until EMT’s arrived to transport Barker to a nearby hospital.
Barker has already been discharged and is currently “resting at home and doing OK,” his rep reported to Entertainment Tonight. “He works out every day and is disappointed that he’ll have to take a little break until he heals,” the rep added.
