MIAMI -- A highway patrol official says O.J. Simpson's girlfriend has been seriously injured in a car accident in Miami.

Florida Highway Patrol Lt. Pat Santangelo says Christie Prody was injured early Saturday morning after pulling over to an expressway emergency lane because she had two flat tires.

When the 32-year-old got out and walked around the car, Santangelo says she was hit by another car. Her head and arms went through that car's windshield.

She was airlifted to Ryder Trauma Center at Miami's Jackson Memorial Hospital where Santangelo says she was still being treated Wednesday for broken legs.
