Juliette Lewis was rushed to hospital Wednesday night (Oct 6) after she was broadsided by a hit-and-run driver on her way home from an event promoting her new movie Conviction,  in Burbank, CA.

The actress was the passenger in a Lincoln Town Car, which was completely totaled after the accident.

Law enforcement sources tell TMZ the driver of the other car — a Honda — fled the scene. Cops discovered the Honda a few blocks from the spot of the crash … but the suspect is still at large.

Lewis’ rep reported, “[Juliette] went to the hospital to be checked out and is a bit banged up and sore but otherwise thankfully okay. She is now resting at home.”
