NASANGKOT ang actor-singer na si Lance Raymundo sa freak gym accident nitong nakaraang linggo, nagresulta sa multiple facial bone fractures at pagkawasak sa kanyang ilong at gitnang bahagi ng mukha.
Sa pahayag ng ina ni Raymundo na si Nina Zaldua-Raymundo, naganap ang insidente nitong Miyerkoles nang mabagsakan ang biktima sa mukha ng 80-pound barbell habang nasa gym.
“The person who was assisting him on his workout accidentally dislodged the barbel on top of Lance’s face when he leaned forward,” aniya. “Luckily, with God’s grace, his skull and his neck were spared as injuring those two parts would have been fatal.”
Ayon pa sa ina ng biktima, maswerte ang kanyang anak at agad siyang napagkalooban ng medical assistance dahil mabilis na naisugod sa ospital si Raymundo.
“Lance will undergo 2 major reconstructive facial procedures. The first one tentatively set on Tuesday, March 25 and the next approximately 2-3 weeks after, and the doctors gave assurance that Lance’s face will be 100% restored,” dagdag pa ng ina.
