GALLUP — Bishop Donald Pelotte, of the Roman Catholic Diocese of Gallup, was hospitalized Sunday afternoon after a serious fall in his home. The details surrounding the incident are sketchy, as Catholic officials say they have very little information at this time.
The bishop was taken to the hospital in Gallup and later flown to the John C. Lincoln Hospital in Phoenix, said the Rev. James P. Hoy, finance director for the diocese.
"We're still not sure what has happened," Hoy said. "He fell at home and has some head injuries."
A public relations representative at the hospital did not return a call requesting the bishop's condition.
"The injuries — we haven't had any indication that they are life-threatening, but they are serious," Hoy said.
