Actress Reese Witherspoon was struck by a car while jogging near Los Angeles on Wednesday morning and suffered minor injuries.
Santa Monica police Sgt. Richard Lewis says the Oscar-winning actress was hit by a car driven by an 84-year-old woman.
Witherspoon was jogging in an unmarked crosswalk in Santa Monica when the driver struck her at about 20 mph. The 35-year-old actress was taken to a local hospital for treatment.
Lewis says the driver was cited for failing to yield to a pedestrian in a crosswalk.
Witherspoon's portrayal of June Carter in the 2005 film "Walk the Line" won her a best-actress Oscar.
