NEW YORK, Dec. 7 (UPI) -- Weezer lead singer Rivers Cuomo suffered three cracked ribs and internal damage in a weather-related tour-bus crash in New York, a band spokesman said.

E! News reported the 40-year-old musician was injured when the bus crashed Sunday morning after hitting an ice patch.

Cuomo's wife and 2-year-old daughter, who were riding with him, reportedly were not hurt.

However, Rivers' assistant, Sarah Kim, fell out of the upper bunk of the bus, fracturing two ribs and a lower vertebrae, E! News said.

Rivers and Kim were transported to an upstate New York hospital where they are being treated for their injuries.
