Joe Jackson in an accident

Joe Jackson was rushed to a hospital after his car met with an accident in the Las Vegas strip.

The King of Pop’s father was travelling in a black Jaguar which was hit when a Red SUV was trying to take a left turn. Law Enforcement sources informed TMZ.com that soon after the accident, Jackson went into a fast food joint and sat down, wincing in pain. He complained of chest pain, and the ambulance took him and his assistant, who was driving the car, to the hospital.

While Jackson, who is now out of the hospital, got out of the accident “without a scratch,” his assistant broke his thumb.
