Rosanna Arquette has crashed into a shopping centre, it has been reported.

The actress, known for starring in films such as Desperately Seeking Susan and Pulp Fiction, crashed a car into a Malibu shopping centre, according to Entertainment Weekly, though no other injuries were reported.

The site reports police saying that the star mistakenly pressed the gas instead of the brake, and she was subsequently transported to hospital as “a precautionary measure”.

“Around 9:45 a.m. a vehicle that was attempting to park, it was unknown exactly what happened, but instead of backing out, it went forward, and took out three [pillars] that support the roof, luckily no one was injured, we had two tables nearby but luckily no one was sitting there.

“Right now we’re just waiting for engineering to come out to deem the building safe and make sure it’s safe. We’re here making sure it doesn’t collapse.”

Fox News further reports that the cause of the crash is “pending an investigation”, according to sheriffs.
