BMX rider and MTV host T.J. Lavin has been placed in a medically induced coma after he crashed following a jump during an event at the Hard Rock Hotel in Las Vegas, the Las Vegas Review Journal reported.
The 33-year-old suffered a head injury Thursday night during preliminaries for this weekend's Dew Tour. The newspaper reported Friday that Lavin was unconscious and taken to a hospital where he was listed in critical condition.
Lavin has been riding professionally since he was 19 and won three X Games titles in the 1990s. Known as the "King of Dirt," Lavin also hosted MTV's "Real World/Road Rules Challenge."
