Boston Reporter Dave Puglisi Off the Air After Getting Hit By Car

By Kevin Eck 

WHDH reporter Dave Puglisi told viewers he’d be off the air for “a little while” after getting hit by a car.

Puglisi, who joined the Boston station last June, explained what happened on social media.

“Life update: I’ll be going off air for a little while. On Wednesday night, I was struck by a car while walking home. I was in the crosswalk about to reach the other side of the road when next thing I knew I was flying through the air,” said Puglisi. “I broke two bones in my spine. I’m home now recovering. I’m walking around a little bit but the pain is tough. I’m bummed to be put on the bench like this but I hope to be back soon. Until then, stay safe and look both ways when crossing the street.”
