E! Online reports that, while not many details of the crash are known, it is believed that the accident resulted in major injuries for Sean.
TMZ has more details, with sources close to the ongoing investigation saying the crash occurred on Sunday evening – and both occupants of the watercraft were rescued from the water by a passerby.
The latter e-zine says the star has been “badly injured.”
“According to Local10.com, the ‘Beautiful Girls’ singer had a female passenger on board his watercraft when it crashed into a bridge around 6 PM local time,” TMZ writes.
