India, Sept. 1 -- Former New York City Mayor Rudy Giuliani was hospitalized Saturday night following a rear-end car crash in New Hampshire. The accident occurred just moments after he reportedly assisted a woman who was the victim of domestic violence.

Giuliani, 81, had pulled over after being flagged down by the woman, according to his spokesman and head of security, Michael Ragusa.

"Mayor Giuliani was flagged down by a woman who was a victim of domestic violence prior to the accident. He rendered assistance and contacted 911, remaining on scene until responding officers arrived to ensure her safety," Ragusa told the New York Post. "The accident occurred after he re-entered his vehicle, which was then hit from behind at high speed."
