Clearwater-Two young men were injured, one critically and the other seriously, when their vehicle careened out of control and hit a palm tree in Clearwater Sunday evening.

Both of the occupants were flown to Bayfront Medical Center in St. Petersburg.
Their conditions are unknown at this time.

The wreck has shut down all traffic in both directions.

The car reportedly belongs to Nicholas Alan Bollea, also known as Nick Hogan. He’s one of the stars of the reality show Hogan Knows Best.
The Nick Hogan high speed car crash may leave his passenger with brain damage. TBO.Com reports that the grandmother Catherine Graziano said her grandson, John Graziano, 22, was with the U.S. Marines in Iraq and her son – Graziano’s father, who lives in Dunedin – was nearly incoherent when he told her by telephone of Graziano’s condition, she said. She remembered her son saying something to the effect of her grandson may have suffered brain damage.
