BOSTON, April 14 (UPI) -- Aides to Boston Mayor Thomas Menino dismissed speculation he might leave office early after suffering a broken leg that required major surgery.
The five-term mayor was resting at Brigham and Women's Hospital after surgeons repaired his left fibula with a plate and screws, and will be on crutches for a couple of months, but he will continue his mayoral duties, his spokeswoman said Saturday.
