Schwarzenegger breaks his leg skiing
AP - California Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger broke his leg while skiing with his family in the US state of Idaho on Sunday, a spokesman said.
Schwarzenegger - the former actor famous for action hero roles in films such as The Terminator - was taken to a hospital for X-rays and was discharged with a fracture to his right femur following the accident, said Adam Mendelsohn, the governor's deputy chief of staff for communications.
He will have surgery to repair the bone when he returns to Los Angeles, Mendelsohn said.
The governor will remain at his home in Sun Valley, Idaho, on Sunday night and still plans to spend Christmas there, Mendelsohn said.
No one else was involved in the accident.
