AARON CARTER - AARON CARTER INJURED

Pop heart-throb AARON CARTER is recovering from a surfing accident which briefly put him in hospital. His spokesperson confirms Carter has been discharged and is resting at home after the ocean mishap. Although the exact cause of the accident is still unknown, a statement from the 18-year-old's publicist yesterday (02AUG06) reads: "(Aaron) had a mining surfing accident earlier this week. "Although hospitalised, he has been released and is recovering nicely at home." Last year (JAN05), the accident-prone pop star described a 'near-death experience' when his car exploded in a motorway collision in Florida.
