Former Scar The Martyr vocalist Henry Derek Bonner has been keeping busy since quitting Joey Jordison's band. Bonner is currently working on new music with former Megadeth members Chris Broderick and Shawn Drover. Bonner is also the new vocalist of local LA area band Thrown Into Exile.
But his career aspirations came to a literal screeching hault as Bonner was involved in a major car accident last night (January 11th) on the 101 Freeway in Los Angeles with a suspected drunk driver causing his car to flip over three times. The attacker then fled the scene. Henry's band, Thrown Into Exile broke the news with a detailed update on their Facebook page:
We are in shock to report that our vocalist Henry Derek was just in a horrific car crash on his way home, the accident took place on the 101 freeway where a suspected drunk driver hit Henry causing his car to roll over 3 times and the driver leaving the scene, I just got off the phone with him and thankfully he is ok and in one piece. As of right now we will not be able to perform tomorrow night at the viper room for you, we never back down from shows but given the situation it is for the best because we want to give you our best and nothing less on stage, we will reschedule the show and make it up to you. Our apologies and please keep Henry in your thoughts, I will keep you in the loop as soon as I get updates.
Thank you for understanding my friends.
– Mario R.
Good to hear than Donner is okay and will make a full recovery. More news as it develops.
