Sandra Bullock and husband Jesse James were hit by a drunk driver Friday night.
The couple were being driven home Friday at approximately 9:50pm when they were hit head-on by a drunk driver in Gloucester, Massachusetts.
Lucille Gatchell, 64, of Gloucester, was driving a gray Subaru station wagon when she crossed the center lane, hitting the couple’s vehicle.
Luckily no one was injured.
Gloucester Police Lt. Gerry Cook told People magazine, “They were shaken up, needless to say. But they were fine – he was hugging her. Jess and Sandra were hugging. They said they were fine, they didn’t need medical attention. There were quite a few people snapping pictures of them.”
After Gatchell was told who she had hit Lt. Cook said, “She started laughing, she was really giddy.”
Gatchell’s blood alcohol level registered .20 on the breathalyzer. She was arrested and booked for DUI then released on her own recognizance. Her arraignment is Tuesday.
