Get a Better Car, Haley
Seems that the Sixth Sense kid, actor Haley Joel Osment, has grown up and finally made the Hollywood headlines the old-fashioned way: He got into a car accident around 1 a.m. this morning driving around La Canada-Flintridge and landed in the hospital.
According to an Associated Press story:
[Osment] was driving a 1995 Saturn about 1 a.m. when the car collided with a brick pillar and flipped, said Los Angeles County sheriff's Lt. Greg Sisneros. The 18-year-old actor was awake and talking following the crash, Sisneros said. He had been alone in the car and was taken to Huntington Hospital in nearby Pasadena.
A 1995 Saturn? Dude, you must have some Sixth Sense dough left over, right?
