After a long day of filming, Hayley Orrantia allegedly took her eyes off the road to look at her GPS on her phone when she hit Ryan Houghton‘s car, TMZ reported. Ryan was then sent to the Intensive Care Unit, where he spent a full week.
After being hit by Hayley, Ryan was rushed to the nearby hospital where he had traumatic brain injury and multiple injuries — he reportedly remained in the ICU for a week and is now in a rehab facility.

Ryan’s family has spoken out saying that Hayley was looking at her phone’s GPS when she ran a red light and hit him. They are taking donations online to help with the high cost of his medical bills.
Law enforcement sources have told TMZ that Haley was ticketed for running the light, and that no drugs or alcohol were involved. The actress’ lawyer gave TMZ the following statement:
The Police record will speak for itself, Hayley was not touching the GPS when she was driving and the allegations are coming from people who were not in the vehicle nor present at the scene at the time.
We will provide more details as they are uncovered.
