Laila Ali sent a man to the hospital on Tuesday after she accidentally backed into him with her car.
Ali, 40, hit the man while driving through the parking lot of the Calabasas Commons in Southern California, according to a report from ET. Paramedics and LA County Sheriff’s deputies initially responded to the accident, where medics treated the victim on the scene but ultimately transported him to a local hospital where he’s in stable condition.
As you can see in the video, Ali remained on the scene and wasn’t arrested or cited. The incident is being investigated as an accident and not a crime.
So far she hasn’t commented publicly on the accident.
