Harrison Ford has reportedly been seriously injured after his vintage WWII training plane crashed on a California golf course.
The 72-year-old has suffered multiple gashes to his head and was left bleeding.
The Los Angeles Fire Department has described his injuries as ‘critical’.
“We can confirm that there was a plane crash and the male occupant was a 65-70-years-old man,” police spokeswoman Nuria Vanegas said.
“He was transported to a local hospital in stable condition.
“The incident was reported at 2:25pm, it was mechanical failure of plane, that’s what caused the accident.”
Howard Tabe, an employee at the Penmar Golf Course, told NBC News, “There was blood all over his face … Two very fine doctors were treating him, taking good care of him. I helped put a blanket under his hip.”
According to People, this is not the first time Ford has crash-landed a plane. In 2000, his six-passenger plane took a dive in Nebraska.
Harrison Ford is best known for his roles in the Indiana Jones and Star Wars films.
More to come.
