“He is currently receiving treatment for these injuries from his physicians and would like to thank all of his fans for the outpouring of support that he has received since the accident.”

wrote on the social networking website
: “Woah…that was a close one! (sic)”.

The rapper – who was previously known as Puff Daddy – also attached an image to his tweet, showing a picture of the same words.

His driver and fellow passenger, who is believed to have been record boss Andre Hurrell, were not taken to hospital and the vehicle was later towed away.

It is unclear who was at fault for the incident, which occurred at the Sunset Boulevard entrance to the hotel.
