Yahoo News reports that Shannon Doherty was involved in a car crash on Monday, that left her with bruises and cut on her thigh, and put another motorist in hospital, authorities and Doherty's publicist said Tuesday.


The actress was driving a Range Rover on to the Pacific Coast Highway on Monday when there was a collision with another vehicle, said Lt. Steve Wilson of the Los Angeles County Sheriff's Department.


James Warren Paul, the driver of the other vehicle, was taken to Santa Monica Hospital, Wilson said. The extent of Paul's injuries weren't known, he said, and the hospital would only say that no one by that name had been admitted.


Doherty complained of pain after the crash, said her publicist, Leslie Sloane Zelnik.

"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,"

Zelnik said


Doherty as been listed as "the party most at fault," but Zelnik noted there were no citations.
