NYC mayoral candidate Curtis Sliwa breaks arm in Manhattan cab crash
NEW YORK — It takes more than a taxi to throw Curtis Sliwa off-kilter.
A yellow cab slammed into Sliwa in Midtown Manhattan on Friday, leaving him with a broken arm and bruises all over his body — but the red beret-wearing Republican mayoral hopeful took the crash in stride.
“I’ve been shot by the mob, recovered, took a licking came back ticking, been attacked many times. So this is just within the normal course of what my life has brought me,” a slightly dazed Sliwa said as he exited Lenox Hill Hospital on the Upper East Side with his left arm in a sling.
“I’m like a cat that has nine lives. I think I’ve used up my eighth,” added the eccentric Guardian Angels founder and animal rights enthusiast, who was still wearing his signature red beret.
