Hollywood superstar George Clooney was treated in hospital on Tuesday for minor injuries after a scooter accident in Sardinia, Italian media reported.
The "Ocean's Eleven" actor hurt his leg when a Mercedes car allegedly turned without giving right of way and collided with his scooter, Italian press agency AGI said.
Clooney, 57, was reportedly thrown from his two-wheeler on to the windscreen of the vehicle in Costa Corallina on the island's northeast coast at around 8 am local time.
The car driver called an ambulance which took Clooney to hospital, AGI added.
His wife Amal, a human rights lawyer, rushed to Clooney's side in hospital, according to local newspaper La Nuova Sardegna, who reported he was later discharged and advised to follow a course of physiotherapy.

The northeast coast of Sardinia is popular with the rich and famous, although Clooney is on location on the island to film a new mini-series "Catch 22".
Clooney is known to adore Italy and owns a number of properties in the country. He officially married Amal in Venice in September 2014 a few days after a lavish party in Lake Como.
AGI said part of the road was closed following the collision. Police told AFP they were unable to comment while operations related to the crash were still underway.
Clooney broke a rib in a motorcycle accident in New Jersey in 2008, while his then-girlfriend Sarah Larson suffered a broken foot.
