Tori Spelling, known for her role in the television series Beverly Hills, 90210, was involved in a car crash with seven children on April 2 in Temecula, California. The Riverside County Sheriff’s Office reported that the crash happened after another driver ran a red light while speeding and hit Spelling's car.
Spelling, aged 52, and the children—four of her own and three friends—were transported to a hospital following the accident.
All occupants were evaluated at the scene by emergency personnel, according to the sheriff's office. No arrests were made at the time. The cause of the collision is still under investigation by authorities.
Spelling described the incident in a video statement, noting that she turned her vehicle hard left to minimize impact on the children, causing the car to spin out. TMZ first reported the crash and stated that Spelling and the children were treated for cuts, bruises, contusions, concussions, and other injuries. Video obtained by TMZ showed Spelling speaking with first responders at the scene.
Photos published by TMZ depicted Spelling’s car with less damage compared to the other vehicle involved. Spelling shares five children with her ex-husband, Dean McDermott. It is unclear which four of her children were in the car.
Spelling expressed thanks to first responders and staff at Inland Valley ER for their care. The accident involved a total of eight people in Spelling's vehicle. No further details on the condition of the other driver were provided in reports.
