LOS ANGELES – The doctor who came to Harrison Ford’s aid immediately after seeing his plane crash-land on a Los Angeles golf course said Friday he was stunned to discover the actor at the controls.
Dr. Sanjay Khurana was golfing Thursday when he saw the plane “drop like a rock” about 50 yards (45 metres) in front of him. He ran to the plane and found the pilot stunned and complaining of pain below his waist and with a deep gash in his scalp.
Khurana and other golfers pulled him from the wreckage, and the doctor assessed his condition. It was at that point that Khurana realized who he was treating.
Ford, 72, is hospitalized with undisclosed injuries that his publicist says are not life-threatening.
The actor, who battled Hitler’s henchmen in “Raiders of the Lost Ark” as dashing archaeologist Jones, was flying a World War II-era plane when it lost engine power shortly after takeoff from Santa Monica Municipal Airport near Los Angeles.
“He had no other choice but to make an emergency landing, which he did safely,” Ford spokeswoman Ina Treciokas said…
