NEW YORK (WABC) -- Rock star Bono injured his arm after falling off his bike in Central Park.

U2 posted a message on the band's website about the accident on Sunday night.

The message says, "It looks like we will have to do our Tonight Show residency another time - we're one man down. Bono has injured his arm in a cycling spill in Central Park, and requires some surgery to repair it.

The band was scheduled to perform on the show this week.

No details have been released on how the accident happened.

An NBC spokesperson confirmed that U2, which had been booked to appear every day this week on NBC's "Tonight Show", had pulled out due to the accident.

Just last week, German authorities said Bono's private plane lost a hatch as it was coming in for a landing at Berlin's airport.
