Napa City Council member James Krider is hospitalized at the Kaiser facility in Vallejo with a broken femur, he told friends on Facebook Tuesday.

Today's reports that Krider broke his thigh bone in a fall while working on his wife's vehicle last Saturday, and was admitted to the hospital Sunday after realizing the injury was more serious than he had hoped.

"Looks like this is home for a while," Krider posted on Facebook from his hospital bed Tuesday.
