Linkin Park cancels tour after lead singer injures his leg

NEW YORK (AP) -- Linkin Park is canceling the rest of its U.S. tour after its lead singer injured his leg.

Chester Bennington says he needs immediate medical attention and it's impossible for him to perform. Bennington hasn't said how he injured his leg.

Linkin Park's "The Hunting Party" tour kicked off last week. The rock band performed only three concerts.

Bennington appeared onstage with crutches at the band's Sunday concert in Indianapolis.

He said Tuesday he's "disappointed" he can't perform and called the first few shows "magical."

Fans can seek refunds for the remaining 16 shows.

The Grammy Award-winning band's hits include "In the End," "Numb" and "New Divide."
