'This is a $400 f****** shirt'
Pullos swerved and flew over a barrier while traveling at 60 mph before slamming into another vehicle in a head-on collision. TMZ reported. Pullos was unable to exit the car and was extracted by the firefighter into an ambulance. Pullos acted weird in the ambulance as per the outlet as a firefighter assessed her injuries. "This is a $400 f****** shirt!" she shouted at the firefighter.
Police reportedly found weed edibles and mini bottles of tequila inside her car. Police claimed that Pullos had "smell of alcohol on her breath, slurred speech, and watery eyes" after they took her to the hospital and she was arrested for DUI while still in the hospital. The star confronted the hospital staff as well and had to be sedated, the outlet mentioned.
'Unfortunately, I was involved in an automobile accident'
Pullos had not addressed or revealed her arrest anywhere or either on social media. She talked about the accident recently on Sopa Opera Digest stating that she was taking a "temporary medical leave," Page Six reported. “Unfortunately, I was involved in an automobile accident and I’m doing OK, but I am going to need a little time to recover,” Pullos said. “I will be back as soon as possible!”
Before the freeway crash, police told TMZ that Pullos was involved in a hit-and-run collision. Pasadena fire department also shared pictures of the incident warning people not to drink and drive. "Pasadena Fire units responded to a traffic collision requiring rescue at the 134 Freeway/Orange Grove exit early this morning. Arriving units found two vehicles involved, with one person trapped, after a reported head-on collision. Fire personnel extricated one person from a vehicle and provided patient care and hospital transport for the occupants of both vehicles. Commitment of Resources: 2 Engines, 1 Truck, 2 Rescue Ambulances, and 1 Battalion Chief. Cause is unknown but always a reminder to stay within the speed limit, avoid drinking and driving and never be distracted by passengers, phones, etc," the police wrote in the post at the time, but it was not clear until recently who were involved in the crash.
