Joe Jackson, the 88-year-old father of Janet Jackson, the late Michael Jackson and the rest of the famous Jackson singers was rushed to a hospital after a minor accident.

According to TMZ, Joe came out unharmed and "got out of it without a scratch."

However, his assistant, who was driving, broke his thumb.

According to law enforcement sources, Joe was a passenger in a black Jaguar when it T-boned a red SUV.

MJ's father walked into a Panda Express next to the accident scene, and sat down wincing in pain, according to witnesses.

He was later taken to a hospital in an ambulance, complaining of chest pains.

Joe has been in and out of the hospital over the past few years due to health ailments.

In 2016, he was admitted to a medical center after suffering from a high fever.
