Rock singer Ozzy Osbourne broke his collarbone and six ribs and sustained other injuries Monday when an all-terrain vehicle he was riding crashed on his property in England, according to his Los Angeles publicist, Cindy Guagenti. Osbourne underwent emergency surgery, but his injuries were not considered life-threatening, Guagenti said.

The British singer and star of MTV’s reality series "The Osbournes" was riding the four-wheeled vehicle during a day off from a tour surrounding the release of a duet single with his daughter Kelly, the publicist said.

Production began recently for the third season of "The Osbournes," which is slated to premiere Jan. 13. An MTV spokeswoman said it was not known how the accident would affect production or if it would be included in the series.
