Rep. Marcy Kaptur said on Sunday that she will undergo physical rehabilitation after being injured in an incident that Toledo, Ohio first responders described as a hit-and-run crash. In a video posted to the social platform X, the congresswoman thanked members of her community for their support and for the “thousands of good wishes” sent following the incident.
Rep. Kaptur, who represents Ohio’s 9th Congressional District, announced the rehabilitation plan in the recorded message and provided limited detail about her condition. Local emergency personnel characterized the event as a hit-and-run; authorities have confirmed their response to the scene but have not released an extensive public update on the investigation or on the circumstances that led to her injury.
In the video, the congresswoman expressed gratitude to constituents and health professionals, and said she would pursue physical therapy to aid recovery. Her post did not include a timetable for returning to official duties, and her office has not issued an additional detailed statement beyond the thank-you message shared on X. The congresswoman’s public social update reiterated appreciation for community support while noting the need for medical rehabilitation.
Toledo first responders remain the primary source for the initial description of the event as a hit-and-run. Officials have not published a fuller chronology or identified any suspects in the matter in a formal release. As the situation develops, the congresswoman’s office and local law enforcement are the expected sources for further factual updates about the investigation and about her recovery timetable.
