On the final day of shooting on the Transformers 3 set, a female extra named Gabriela V. Cedillo, 24, of Chicago was seriously injured during the filming of a stunt involving several cars and drivers. The accident occurred Wednesday night when a cable snapped and went through the windshield of the Toyota that Cedillo was driving. She was airlifted to Loyola Hospital with serious head injuries and is reportedly in critical condition. Blaine Baker, who was also an extra on the set told WLS-TV: “A vehicle was being towed by another vehicle. The cable between the two vehicles broke. It whipped around and sliced through the woman’s car and sliced through her skull, apparently. ”
Update: Ms. Cedillo is in stable condition after undergoing brain surgery.

For many actors, it would be a dream come true to land a role in a Steven Spielberg film. Unfortunately, Shia LaBeouf’s dream did not unravel as he had imagined…
omg…. hope she’s okay.
I hope she is OK. I hope Michael Bay offered to pay her medical bills and pain and suffering.
I hope she lives. I used to do extra work and once was asked to drive my own car in a shot. Otherwise, I would’ve thought it was weird that an extra was driving a car instead of a stunt person.
Wow, I hope she gets better soon
Sliced through her skull? Does NOT sound good.
How awful….no movie is worth that…
Well, nobody knows in advance that you’d be injured. Just hope she’d be ok
That “sliced through the skull” made me queasy
I do hope she is o.k.. You can always know these things can happen… but never know when it’s going to strike.. I do wish her the best and am praying for her and her family.
See if Michael Bay just stuck to using CGI like he always did, none of this would happen.
wow. i hope she makes a full recovery. the world is a dangerous place!
OMG. Please keep us updated Tribute!
yes, i would like to know if she recovers, i read one i think it was on here about gale harold being in critical condition after a motorcycle accident, never heard anything more on the story (even tried googling it to see if he was ok, im assuming he was because i couldnt find anything!!). i hate not knowing!
woah I hope she’ll be alright
o my goodness i hope she pulls through this 🙁 Take care
