"Transformers: Age of Extinction" actor Jack Reynor is being sued after he supposedly ran down two females with his car.
The said women said that two years ago, the actor hit them with his car while they were crossing an intersection in Hollywood.
According to the women, the impact had been so hard that they were sent flying into the air and consequently, hit the hood of Reynor's car. In court documents, the women claimed that one of them suffered a head trauma and a leg injury, while the other had knee and back injuries.

The women are suing the 22-year old Irish actor for at least US$25,000.
Reynor's reps have yet to respond to the women's claims.
After the performer received very good reviews at the Toronto Film Festival for his role in the 2012 Irish flick "What Richard Did", he moved to Hollywood with only US$40 to his name. His performance in the said movie was said to have prompted he producers of "Transformers" to cast him in the franchise.
The actor, who was born in Colorado but grew up in Ireland, played the role of race car driver Shane in "Transformers: Age of Extinction". Along with movie's main stars Mark Wahlberg and Nicola Peltz, Reynor has been contracted for three films, to start a new "Transformers" trilogy.
The actor also appeared in the 2013 American comedy "Delivery Man", starring alongside Chris Pratt, Vince Vaughn and Cobie Smulders.
Reynor is currently engaged to his model-girlfriend Madeline Mulqueen whom he proposed to last March. The couple have been together for two years.
"We're having a lot of conversations of when we're going to do it and where we're going to do it. But it's something I'm keeping between me and her to the best of my ability," Reynor said of their upcoming nuptials.
