Canadian diver in Chinese hospital

A Canadian diver is in stable condition after being struck by a vehicle while crossing a street in China. Twenty-seven-year-old Kevin Greyson was on his way back to his hotel room from the Oriental Sports Venue. Greyson was competing in the world aquatics championship. 

Diving Canada spokesperson Samuel Larochelle said Greyson would remain in hospital for up to one week. The Winnipeg native suffered a concussion and a deep cut to his left knee, and minor cuts and bruises.

China’s streets are some of the most dangerous in the world. In 2010, more than 65,000 people died in Chinese road accidents.
