Dukakis, Wife Hurt in One-Car Crash

Former Massachusetts Gov. and onetime Democratic presidential candidate Michael S. Dukakis and his wife were in a Boston hospital with whiplash after Kitty Dukakis lost control of their car. She was driving on a busy Boston street when she lost control of the car, sideswiping and knocking down part of a wall, a state police spokesman said. Part of the wall hit another car, damaging it. The couple was taken to Massachusetts General Hospital and X-rays showed no serious injuries. The state police spokesman said it appeared no drugs or alcohol were involved in the accident. Dukakis lost the 1988 presidential race to George Bush.
