Sandra Bullock and her husband Jesse James were in a car accident last night, according to People. The actress and James were riding home in a private car from Gloucester, Mass. at 9:50 p.m. when a drunk driver switched lanes suddenly, smashing the front of the star's car. There were no injuries, fortunately.
"They were shaken up, needless to say," Gloucester Police Lt. Gerry Cook said. "But they were fine – he was hugging her. Jess and Sandra were hugging. They said they were fine, they didn’t need medical attention. There were quite a few people snapping pictures of them."
The driver of the other car, 64-year-old Gloucester resident Lucille P. Gatchell, failed a field sobriety test and had a blood alcohol level of .20, two and a half times the legal limit. She was arrested and later released on her own recognizance. She will be arraigned on Tuesday for driving under the influence and failure to stay in marked lanes.
Cook said Gatchell did not realize Sandra Bullock was in the car she hit until the arresting officer told her on the way to the station. "And then she started laughing; she was really giddy," he said.
