"After the fan meeting, Felix was in a vehicle (Carnival), that was slowly making its way from the Inspire Arena parking lot towards the main lobby, when a shuttle bus, that was moving slowly behind, collided with the left rear side of the vehicle. The accident itself was minor, but the momentary shift in Felix's weight onto his arm caused him to collide with the armrest inside the vehicle, resulting in a fracture," the agency shared in their statement.

Subsequently, he was rushed to the hospital for an immediate check-up. Regarding the result of the report, the agency shared another press release where they added:

"Felix was transferred to a higher-level general hospital where he underwent an MRI scan and was examined by specialized faculty.
