London, Aug 7 : The London leg of pop diva Madonna’s `Re-invention’ tour has got off to a bad start with one of her crew falling from a 30 foot high scaffold and breaking his arm and leg. According to Ananova, the crew member was measuring the dimensions of the stage as part of the preparations for the concert at London’s Earl’s Court. He was subsequently airlifted to the Royal London Hospital in White Chapel, East London. “We received a call from Earl’s Court at 1 p.m. to say that a man had fallen approximately 30ft,” said a spokesman. “An ambulance and an air ambulance were called and crews were on the scene for around two hours because there were difficulties moving the patient. His main injuries appeared to be to his shoulder and arm,” he added. “The entire crew, performers and staff, especially Madonna, were very saddened to hear about the accident but we are hopeful that he will make a full recovery,” Caresse Henry, Madonna’s manager, was quoted as saying. Madonna will begin her UK tour in Manchester on August 14. She is scheduled to perform at Earl’s Court on August 18 and 19.
