Former Brenda from "Beverly Hills 90210", actress Shannen Doherty was involved in a car crash on Monday in Malibu, California. Investigators say the former "Charmed" and "Beverly Hills 90210" star was driving a Range Rover, trying to make a left turn onto Pacific Coast Highway, when she collided with a Ford Mustang driving by James Warren Paul.
The Los Angeles County sheriff's department reports actress Shannen Doherty complained of pain after the car crash that sent another driver to the hospital.
Although the 34-year-old actress complained of pain after the crash, she declined treatment, while the driver of the Mustang, James Paul was taken to a hospital by ambulance. Investigators of the case list Doherty as "the party most at fault," as web site TMZ.com first reported the accident. Still, the star has not been cited. Doherty's publicist Leslie Sloane Zelnik says: "She went in a private car to Cedars-Sinai (Medical Center). She refused to go in an ambulance. She was examined in the emergency room for thigh bruises and cuts. She's in pain a little bit. Her left side is 'a little messed up', to use her words."
On Tuesday, Doherty was resting comfortably at home, Shannen's publicist added. "She's in pain a little bit," Zelnik said. "Her left side is a little messed up, to use her words."
This is not the first car trouble that the "Beverly Hills 90210" star got into. In 2001 Doherty was arrested for drunken driving and was ordered to serve five days on a work-release program after pleading no contest to the misdemeanor charge.
