Paralyzed Former Congressman Allegedly Crashes Into Florida Trooper, Injuring Him

People are in disbelief after Madison Cawthorn, a former United States Representative from North Carolina, allegedly crashed into a Florida Highway Patrol cruiser, injuring the trooper inside. What’s most shocking about the incident is Cawthorn has been paralyzed from the waist down for years.

A car rental agency has been accused of renting stolen cars, then stealing them from customers.

Multiple media outlets have been reporting on this incident, but one user on X, named Alethea, uploaded footage of the aftermath. It shows someone who looks an awful lot like Cawthorn in a wheelchair on the side of the road, a wrecked Mercedes a little further down the road.

That X user claims she was tailgated by the paralyzed former Congressman before he rear ended the trooper’s Dodge Charger. While not everyone is buying every last detail of her story since the account is obviously quite politically motivated in the opposite orientation as Cawthorn (she’s a socialist Swiftie, after all), the video footage is compelling.
