Kerry ‘in good spirits’ after bike wreck

State Department spokesperson John Kirby says Kerry is “in good spirits” and plans to participate remotely in an anti-Islamic State summit he was slated to attend in France.

“The Secretary very much regrets not being able to visit Spain to meet with one of our close allies for discussions on a range of issues, as well as being unable to attend the counter-ISIL coalition ministerial meeting on Tuesday in Paris in person,” Kirby says in a statement.

The accident left Kerry with a broken right femur with the injury in a spot near a previous hip surgery, which is why he opted to fly back to Boston for treatment, Kirby says.
