Actress Haley Pullos Arrested Over Hit-And-Run
Actress Haley Pullos has been charged with DUI after being engaged in a terrible vehicle accident in Pasadena, California. The incident reportedly happened on April 29.
According to TMZ, Pullos was travelling on the 134 Freeway when she allegedly swerved, jumped a median barrier, and began travelling in the opposite direction of oncoming traffic. According to aceshowbiz.com, the actress eventually collided with a car that was travelling at about 60 mph.
The Pasadena Fire Department also posted a series of images from the incident site on Twitter, showing both cars in complete disarray after the collision.
“Pasadena Fire units responded to a traffic collision requiring rescue at the 134 Freeway/Orange Grove exit early this morning. Arriving units found two vehicles involved, with one person trapped, after a reported head-on collision,” authorities wrote in a Facebook post.
It continued: “Fire personnel extricated one person from a vehicle and provided patient care and hospital transport for the occupants of both vehicles. The cause is unknown but always a reminder to stay within the speed limit, avoid drinking and driving and never be distracted by passengers, phones, etc.”
TMZ went on to share that the actress, who plays Molly Lansing-Davis on the soap drama, had to be pried out of her car by Pasadena firefighters and officers later found marijuana edibles and mini-bottles of tequila.
She reportedly had slurred speech and smelled of alcohol, according to the complaint. She apparently got into a battle with emergency personnel as well, saying to one firefighter who was examining her injuries, “This is a $400 f**king shirt!” After the accident, things turned physical, to the point where Pullos needed to be sedated, and she ended up fighting with medical staff.
According to the news source, the other motorist was hospitalized with serious injuries. In an interview with Soap Opera Digest, Haley did acknowledge the vehicle accident and said she would be missing a few episodes of “General Hospital.”
“Unfortunately, I was involved in an automobile accident and I’m doing okay, but I am going to need a little time to recover. I will be back as soon as possible,” she said.
Holiday Mia Kriegel was tapped to replace Pullos temporarily. Kriegel will reportedly make her onscreen debut on its May 22 episode.
