Ride Me

Sources close to Jesse tell us ... James is living full-time in Texas and wants to focus on his shop out there.

It all went down this afternoon ... a TMZ photographer was shooting Hugh when a van and a Jetta collided across the street.

Our guy ended up interviewing one of the drivers involved in the accident -- who explained that he was looking for his next turn when, "I see all these cameras and Isee Hugh Jackman. Next thing I know, I went to take the turn ... BAM."

We're told the retired NFL superstar sustained injuries in the wreck -- cops are on scene. TMZ obtained these photos of Seau's Cadillac Escalade which landed at the bottom of a cliff several feet from the beach.

Seau has been transported to a local hospital. The accident happened just south of Oceanside, CA ... where the former San Diego Charger had just been released from jail hours earlier.

As TMZ first reported, Junior Seau was arrested early this morning for domestic violence.

According to a lawsuit, filed Tuesday in L.A. County Superior Court, the "Wolfman" star was rollin' around in his 1992 Ford Bronco (the same one in the above photo) when he plowed into another SUV driven by a guy named Hassam Zarbakhsh.

Hassam's lawyer tells us ... his client suffered "a major spinal injury" during the crash including a bulging disc in his lower back. We're told Hassam is suing for a judgment in the 6-figure range.

Warren tells us he was in the far left lane on a Miami freeway when he tried to change into the center lane ... at the same time that a cop decided to change into the same lane.

Warren says he saw the cop and tried to speed up to "safely make the lane change" -- and that's when the cop flipped on his lights and took Warren down.

There was more trouble on the Washington D.C. set of "Transformers 3" today -- when a cop car drove through the movie's perimeter and collided with one of the movie's main stars ... bright yellow Autobot Bumblebee!

A nearby shop owner tells TMZ there was a lot of police activity in the area right at the time of the accident due to a bomb scare. It is unclear if the cop car involved in the accident was part of that investigation.

The guy in question -- named Bryan Fuller -- sued Lipinski for $7,500 in July, claiming she backed into him with her SUV while he was exiting an L.A. parking lot last year ... and as a result, he suffered "serious injuries to his neck, back, left shoulder, left arm" ... and the list goes on.

Dude claimed his medical bills totaled $2,279 after the incident -- not to mention "at least" $1,223.02 in damages to his vehicle -- but clearly the judge wasn't buying his case ... because when the gavel came down earlier this week, Mr. Fuller was awarded jack squat.

The Sitch's manager (pictured above) tells us the car was only a rental -- and it was the manager's rental, not The Situation's. The manager tells us he was backing up the car and didn't notice the truck behind him had its lift down -- so when he hit the lift and tried to pull forward, it ripped the bumper almost clean off.

As we first reported, Lewis was being driven home from a movie event when a person driving a Honda T-boned Lewis' ride at an intersection ... leaving paint marks and a big, fat dent.

The actress was being driven home from an event for her movie "Conviction" -- when another car T-boned the vehicle transporting Lewis at an intersection at 10:19 PM.

We're told Lewis' ride -- a Lincoln Town Car -- was "completely totaled."

Lewis' rep adds, "[Juliette] went to the hospital to be checked out and is a bit banged up and sore but otherwise thankfully okay. She is now resting at home."

Law enforcement sources tell TMZ the driver of the other car -- a Honda -- fled the scene. Cops discovered the Honda a few blocks from the spot of the crash ... but the suspect is still at large.

We're told an investigation into the incident is underway.

It all went down in Hollywood ... right after Sitch left Playhouse nightclub with a few members of his crew. The "Jersey Shore" star rolled into a waiting SUV and took off ... but moments later, the car was stopped on the side of the road ... next to an LAPD squad car with flashing lights.

It's unclear why the police got involved -- but both The Situation and his friends got out of their SUV and had a friendly exchange with the officers ... who never got out of their squad car.

According to documents filed in L.A. County Superior Court, the Pittsburgh Penguins star bought a 2009 Mercedes-Benz CL550 back in 2008 -- but eventually defaulted on the payments.

The finance company claims they tried to repossess the car from Comrie -- but he has "refused to allow Plaintiff possession."

Now, the finance company claims they want Mike to pay off the rest of his contract -- $103,398.57 ... plus other costs.

Witnesses tell TMZ ... Weatherly was driving a black Mercedes over the Barham Pass, which connects Hollywood with the San Fernando Valley, when the lanes merged and somehow at least two vehicles were involved in a collision.

Weatherly's car sustained some serious damage to the front passenger side. The front bumper was nearly ripped off the ride. A silver BMW was also damaged in the crash.

We just spoke with the driver of the silver BMW -- who told us Weatherly crashed into him and ran the BMW into a nearby pole. The driver tells us Weatherly quickly parked his car, approached the BMW and "accepted responsibility" for the accident.

The driver tells us both parties exchanged information. The BMW has already been loaded on to a tow truck. Weatherly seems okay -- he's on his cell phone right now.
