Gidi Gov, the prominent Israeli singer and TV host, does not appear for his hearing in traffic court after driving drunk and injuring several people on the road last night, Channel 12 reports.
Gov has reportedly acknowledged that he was under the influence last night when he crashed into a number of cars on Tel Aviv’s Ayalon Highway, lightly injuring several people who were then taken to the hospital. But Channel 12 reports that he declined to attend the hearing today, citing ill health. The network says that earlier, he had said he was feeling well and recovering at home.
The Kaveret co-founder and longtime TV personality’s license is suspended, the channel reports.
