"September 18,2005 | ATLANTA -- Motley Crue lead singer Vince Neil broke his leg performing at a concert Friday night. The band was about five songs into the concert at downtown Atlanta's Philips Arena when Neil leaned over to sing along with the audience and slipped off stage, said Atlanta Police Department spokeswoman Sylvia Abernathy.

He was treated at Piedmont Hospital and released Saturday, hospital spokeswoman Diana Lewis said.

Police also responded to an unrelated incident involving a man who injured himself after jumping from the fourth floor of the arena into the audience. He was transported to Grady Memorial Hospital."

Please let there be video of this.

His website reports that this story is bogus:

MÖTLEY CRÜE SINGER INJURED, BUT THE SHOW WILL GO ON

9.17.05 - Vince Neil tears a calf muscle in Atlanta, but Crüe "Carnival of Sins" tour won't miss a beat

ATLANTA, GA - Mötley Crüe won't let a little muscle tear get in the way of its rock & roll juggernaut.

Despite an erroneous wire service report that he broke his leg, the band's lead singer Vince Neil partially tore the medial portion of his calf muscle last night five songs into Crüe's performance at the Phillips Arena in Atlanta, GA. The show was part of the band's ongoing, successful "Carnival of Sins" world tour that began last February.

Vince's leg gave out shortly before intermission, and the band was forced to end the concert early after Neil was taken to a nearby hospital. Although he was in a great deal of pain at the time, Neil is expected to make a full and quick recovery, according to his doctors, who nevertheless urged him to take some time off. The band intends to return to Atlanta to make-up the show. Tickets from last night's show will be honored at that time. Ticket holders should contact their point of purchase for more information or refunds.

"I just felt something snap in my leg," recalls Neil. "I just couldn't go on."

Is Vince still slimmer after his remaking? He needs to leave the porkchops alone. Just kidding, that's my dawg! Saw them in concert in March and they rocked it!
