Houston Anchor Hurt in Fall

By Kevin Eck 

KTRK anchor Dave Ward will be out for a few weeks after breaking his pelvic bone.

Houston media blogger Mike McGuff reports Ward was recording an audio spot at the Houston ABC-owned station when a headphone wire got wrapped around his legs, causing him to fall. The station is calling it a “minor mishap.”

The next thing, Ward was on the way to the hospital where doctors say he had hairline type fracture on his pelvic bone.

Though the injury could take three to four weeks to heal, Ward said he wants to be back at work before that.

“I’ll be back in time for the rodeo parade come hell or high water,” Ward told McGuff.
