Anthony Joshua returns to Britain after car crash that killed two friends in Nigeria

LONDON (AP) — Former world heavyweight champion Anthony Joshua has reportedly flown back to Britain several days after a fatal car crash that killed two of his friends in Nigeria.

Sina Ghami and Latif “Latz” Ayodele died after the vehicle they were traveling in along with Joshua struck a stationary truck on a major road near Lagos on Monday.

Joshua sustained minor injuries and the two-time heavyweight champion was released from a hospital on Wednesday after being deemed clinically fit to recuperate at home.

British media reported on Saturday that Joshua has returned home ahead of the funerals of Ghami and Ayodele.
