Actor Billy Bob Thornton has been treated in hospital for a head injury after he was involved in a car accident in Los Angeles.
The 60-year-old actor was a passenger in a vehicle that collided with another car in West Hollywood at around 6.45am local time.
Paramedics were called to the scene and the Bad Santa star was taken to the local Cedars-Sinai Medical Center to receive treatment for a head injury, according to TMZ.com.
However, a representative for Thornton has downplayed the accident, telling the outlet the actor was only hospitalised as a precaution. He was subsequently given the all-clear and discharged.
