As of Monday afternoon, Van Krevelen was in good condition at OU Medical Center, his wife, Sally, said.

"He has a clot in his brain, but it's not bleeding anymore," she said, adding his shoulder was broken as well. "He was in the ICU, but he is doing better now. He has a lot of road rash and a big bruise on his side... He has a severe head injury, but cognitively, he is OK."
