Hollywood Star Involved in Shocking Car Accident on Sunset Boulevard
Hollywood was shaken Thursday night after popular actor J.H, best known for his roles in action blockbusters and award-winning dramas, was involved in a serious car accident on Sunset Boulevard.
According to eyewitnesses and LAPD reports, Hartley’s black Tesla Model S collided with a delivery truck at the intersection of Sunset and Highland around 11:45 PM. The impact caused both vehicles to spin out of control, with the Tesla slamming into a nearby utility pole. Emergency services arrived on the scene within minutes.
Paramedics transported Hartley, 38, to Cedars-Sinai Medical Center where he was treated for a concussion and a broken collarbone. A statement from his publicist this morning confirmed he is in stable condition and expected to make a full recovery.
The driver of the delivery truck sustained minor injuries and was released after receiving medical attention at the scene.
Investigators are still determining the cause of the crash, but early reports suggest that slick roads and possible speeding may have contributed. Surveillance footage from nearby businesses is being reviewed.
Fans and fellow actors have taken to social media to send well wishes and express their concern. Actress and co-star Maya Renner tweeted, “Praying for you, Jason. Get well soon – the world needs your energy.”
This is not the first time Hollywood has seen a high-profile car accident. With traffic congestion and late-night filming schedules common in Los Angeles, experts are again calling for increased road safety awareness among public figures and everyday drivers alike.
Hartley’s latest film, Edge of Tomorrow II, is currently in post-production and slated for release this fall. It’s unclear how the accident might affect promotional plans.
Authorities urge any witnesses to come forward as the investigation continues.
