“The Voice” Season 11 winner Sundance Head has been released from the hospital after being injured from a stray bullet at his Texas ranch. Head, 46, was airlifted to a hospital Nov. 15 after being hit by a stray bullet in the stomach area while hunting, his agent Trey Newman said in a statement.
Newman said the bullet was "lodged in the fatty area" of Head's stomach and that surgery was not scheduled. In a Facebook post from Head's verified page, the singer's wife, Misty, confirmed he will not need surgery. “Bullet went in above his navel and lodged into his abdominal wall missing all vital organs.
He will not require surgery as they are not removing the bullet,” she wrote, adding that “no internal damage was done by the bullet.” In the statement shared Friday night, Newman said, "At this time we don’t have info on exactly how it happened but are 100% positive it was not self inflicted." Head was released from the hospital late Friday night and arrived home early to recover in the morning on Nov.
16, according to a post shared to his verified Facebook page Saturday. Head won Season 11 of "The Voice" in 2016. He went on to tour with Blake Shelton, who coached Head during his time on the singing competition, and released two albums.
