NASCAR's Roush injured in Wisconsin plane crash

MILWAUKEE (AP) -NASCAR team owner Jack Roush was injured, but walked away from a plane crash in Wisconsin, Roush Fenway Racing president Geoff Smith tells The Associated Press.

“There are injuries. Possible surgery,” Smith said in a text message to AP. “But he walked out of the plane.”

Roush, an aviation buff, was expected to attend the Experimental Aircraft Association's annual AirVenture in Oshkosh, Wis., this week. The EAA was expected to post a statement on its website Tuesday night.

It is the second close call for Roush, who crashed a plane into a pond in Alabama in 2002 and was rescued by an ex-Marine who lived nearby.
