UPDATE: Gavin DeGraw Was Struck By Taxi After Being Beaten

It has just been learned that shortly after Gavin DeGraw was attacked late Sunday night by a group of unknown attackers he was then struck by a taxi cab. A bystander saw the event and quickly called 911 following the crash, which seems to be an accidental one (in other words, I don’t think the cab driver was in cahoots with DeGraw’s assailants).

DeGraw was transported to Bellevue Hospital where he’s now being treated for a variety of injuries, including: black eyes, a concussion, major cuts, significant bruising, and a broken nose.

A rep for the 34-year-old says, “Police are conducting an investigation of the attack. Gavin and his family appreciate everyone’s concern at this time. We have no information yet regarding his upcoming concert dates and promotion for his new album.”

DeGraw has been touring with Maroon 5 and Train, and while he’ll not be able to make it to this evening’s performance in Saratoga Springs, the bands were “horrified to hear what happened to Gavin and send their best wishes to him for a speedy recovery.”

If you guys come into contact with any more info throughout the day, feel free to add comments to this post. We’ll keep you updated as well, as soon as more info is released on the singer’s condition.
