NEW YORK — Brian McNamee, the former personal trainer who has said he injected former New York Yankees pitcher Roger Clemens with steroids and human growth hormone, fainted while driving and crashed his car head-on into a city bus, according to published reports.
McNamee told police he blacked out because of an ongoing medical problem, the Daily News and New York Post reported Friday.
McNamee's Lexus, another car and the bus were involved in the crash around 12:30 p.m. ET Thursday on Central Avenue in Queens' Far Rockaway neighbourhood, according to the newspapers.
No one was seriously hurt, according to the newspapers.

No one was charged with any offence in the wreck, the Post said. No information was immediately available from police early Friday.
McNamee testified under oath before a Congressional committee that he injected Clemens with performance-enhancers at least 16 times between 1998 and 2001. Clemens testified that he never used steroids or HGH, and he has sued McNamee, claiming defamation.
