Harrison Ford Accident

The Hufftington Post . A plane piloted by Harrison Ford crashed on a Los Angeles area golf course on Thursday afternoon, leaving the actor injured but "ok" according to his son. Ford's involvement in the crash on Penmar Golf Course in Venice was also confirmed by multiple news organizations.

Ford's rep did not return HuffPost Entertainment's immediate request for comment, but according to a statement obtained by KABC, his injuries are not "life threatening." "Harrison was flying a WW2 vintage plane today which had engine trouble upon take off," his publicist told KABC. "He had no other choice but to make an emergency landing, which he did safely. He was banged up and is in the hospital receiving medical care. The injuries sustained are not life threatening, and he is expected to make a full recovery."

TMZ was the first to report the news that Ford was taken to the hospital following the incident. The Los Angeles Fire Department confirmed the plane's solo occupant was transported to a local hospital. Authorities would not identify the person injured in the crash. In a media briefing, a representative for the LAFD said the patient was found in "moderate condition," "conscious," "breathing" and outside the plane when the paramedics arrived on the scene. No other people were injured.
