"Blossom" Star Mayim Bialik Injured in Serious Car Accident

Mayim Bialik faced serious injuries after being involved in a car accident in Los Angeles this afternoon (August 15).

The 36-year-old actress was apparently traveling alone in a white Volvo when it was struck in an intersection by a vehicle filled with tourists from Chile, according to a report from TMZ.

One source told the site that there was, “tons and tons of blood everywhere,” adding that the "Blossom" star sustained major damage to her hand and, "her finger was almost completely severed ... it was just hanging there."

Miss Bialik was transported to a local hospital for her injuries.

She was set to make an appearance on “The Soup” tonight and tweeted, “I'm going to be on The Soup tonight reviewing reality TV highlights. Teaser: the clips they scripted for me include a bit of raunchy humor. Wish me luck and tune in tonight!” earlier this afternoon.
