Reese Witherspoon Hit By A Car

Reese Witherspoon was rushed to a Santa Monica hospital around 11am this morning, after a car struck the actress while she was jogging. Witherspoon was struck around 11 a.m. in a residential neighborhood.

The driver of the car, an 84-year-old woman who'd been traveling about 20 mph, was cited for failing to yield to a pedestrian in a crosswalk. Fortunately, a rep for the actress reports her injuries were minor and she is now "resting comfortably" at home.

Thank goodness.

The Oscar winner sustained minor injuries and is now "resting comfortably at home" after receiving treatment, said her rep, Nanci Ryder. "Reese Witherspoon was hit by a car on Wednesday and sustained minor injuries,' a police spokesperson told the American website.
