WASHINGTON — Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton fractured her right elbow during a fall Wednesday, her chief of staff said.
Clinton was on her way to the White House when she fell and injured her elbow, chief of staff Cheryl Mills said in a statement released late Wednesday.
Clinton was treated at The George Washington University Hospital, just a few blocks from State Department headquarters, before going home. She will undergo surgery to repair her elbow in the coming week, Mills said.
Clinton had been scheduled to join movie actress Angelina Jolie this morning at a Washington event marking World Refugee Day.
That event has been removed from Clinton’s public schedule.
