Actor Tom Sizemore wasn’t supposed to drive during an incident that left a stuntman injured on the USA series “Shooter,” but he took things off-script and threw the SUV into reverse anyway, the Associated Press reports.
Citing papers from a Cal/OSHA investigation, the AP reported that Sizemore wasn’t supposed to move the vehicle. However, he “inexplicably drove off,” causing stuntman Steve de Castro to be run over and dragged, suffering injuries including fractures in his wrist and forearm, as well as bone and tissue damage.
While Sizemore was merely supposed to sit behind the wheel of the SUV during the shootout scene, the vehicle was left running to provide air conditioning.
