New Canaan First Selectman Recovering from Broken Leg

First Selectman Rob Mallozzi is recovering from an accident that left him with sprained ankle and a broken fibula.

Mallozzi was in Newport, R.I. for a 12-meter sailing race, according to the New Canaanite. He took a bad step between a boat and a launch.

Mallozzi will be spending the rest of his booked vacation recovering with his leg elevated to help speed-up the healing. He will be back at work Tuesday.
