General Hospital's Haley Pullos hobbles with crutches as she resurfaces in court after horrific car crash and rehab

Jun 01, 2023

HALEY Pullos has been spotted hobbling on crutches as she walked into a Pasadena, California courthouse to face charges of driving under the influence.

The General Hospital star was arrested in April after causing a horrific collision on an LA freeway.

Haley, who played Molly Lansing-Davis on the show, appeared in court for a hearing on the two felony charges she's facing.

The 25-year-old is accused of being drunk and high when she drove the wrong way down the freeway, hitting another car head-on.

On Thursday, she showed she is still suffering from the aftermath of the crash, relying on crutches to enter the building.

Haley was dressed in an oversized white blazer over a blue top, and matching high waisted pants.

She was accompanied by her parents for the hearing.

Haley pleaded not guilty at a preliminary hearing last month.

She was arrested for a DUI after allegedly causing a major car accident on April 29.

Police at the time reported that the soap opera star was driving down a Pasadena freeway when she "swerved, flew over the dividing barrier, and into oncoming traffic."

The TV star then collided head-on with another vehicle going about 60 miles an hour in the opposite direction.

Photos from the incident show both cars damaged beyond repair, with shattered windshields and smashed machinery.

After police arrived on the scene of the accident, they claimed that Haley was unable to exit her vehicle due to the extreme damage.

Firefighters were finally able to free her from the car and they helped her into an ambulance.

But according to authorities, when a firefighter was examining her injuries, the actress "struck him" and yelled: "This is a $400 f***ing shirt!"

Haley was escorted to the hospital where the cops claimed she showed "clear signs" of driving under the influence, such as slurred speech, watery eyes, and the smell of alcohol on her breath.

The TV personality then allegedly got aggressive and "fought" the hospital staff, leading to her sedation.

She was arrested shortly after with a felony DUI charge while still under their care.

The driver of the other vehicle reportedly survived the accident but was hospitalized with serious injuries.

Haley was born on July 10, 1998, in Palo Alto, California.

She got her start in the entertainment industry in the early 2000s then got her big break after landing the role of Molly Lansing-Davis on General Hospital at the age of 11.

However, she seems to have lost her job following her arrest, having already been replaced as Molly by two actresses.

Mia Kriegel was first picked to take over for Haley after the star left on what she first called "medical leave."

Higher-ups in production have since changed their minds about Mia, firing her less than three months after they gave her the part.

Tapped to replace Haley's fill-in was Brooke Anne Smith, who made her debut earlier this month.

Fans were not happy with the constant changes, and vented about it on Twitter.

"Speechless at this poor casting," one fan slammed in a tweet.

Another cosigned: "Brooke could be playing Haley's mother! How is this thoughtful casting #GH! #Molly."

A third fan added: "This woman playing Molly today is way too old, hope she’s not a permanent recast."

After the vitriol, Brooke's own brother came to her defense, revealing that his sis doesn't plan on going anywhere soon.

"Brooke is a permanent recast," he slammed. "Original Molly is not coming back."
