Renee Zellweger In Minor Car Crash

The American actress has been involved in a minor car accident last night in Beverly Hills, but fortunately she walked away uninjured. According to TMZ, following the collision, one of the headlights from Renee Zellweger's car was shattered and one of the cars lost a license plate in the smash.

However, an insider told to the same source that the actress is not to blame for the crash, as someone made a U-turn into her. Renee was driving her silver Mercedes G-Wagon, when a green Ford Explorer made an illegal U-turn, Lt. Tony Lee of the Beverly Hills Police Department told PEOPLE.

"Ms. Zellweger was not injured, the damage to her car was very minor. She was very polite and sincere," the officer confirmed. "Ms. Zellweger requested her car be towed from the scene, and also requested that officers call her a cab," said Lt. Tony, adding that the actress and driver of the other car have exchanged information and "the incident will be handled between their insurance companies."

Zellweger, 40, is an Academy Award winner and one of the most beloved actresses that Hollywood has. She has also won three Golden Globe Awards and has established herself as one of the highest-paid Hollywood actresses in recent years.

She is known for her role in the film Jerry Maguire (1996), and subsequently received two nominations for the Academy Award for Best Actress for her roles as Bridget Jones in the comedy Bridget Jones's Diary (2001) and as Roxie Hart in the musical Chicago (2002). Zellwegger also won the Academy Award for Best Supporting Actress for her performance in the drama Cold Mountain (2003).
