Actor Will Ferrell was taken to the hospital following a crash in Aliso Viejo, California, according to the highway patrol.
Ferrell was a passenger in an SUV that was sideswiped on the northbound I-5 at 10.55pm local time on Thursday.
Video footage from the scene showed Ferrell talking on a mobile phone while being loaded into an ambulance. The actor was not seriously hurt, his representative told TMZ.
One person was taken to hospital in critical condition, according to the Orange County Fire Authority, which said two others, like Ferrell, suffered minor injuries.
Ferrell was one of three passengers in the chauffeur-driven SUV, which was returning from a "Funny or Die" event in San Diego. Ferrell appeared as Ron Burgundy from the movie Anchorman.
