An extra was seriously injured Wednesday night on the set of "Transformers 3" just outside of Chicago.
The woman . . . 24-year-old Gabriela Cedillo . . . suffered a severe head injury while sitting behind the wheel of a car.
Here's what another extra told the local ABC affiliate . . . quote, "The 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."
Filming for yesterday was cancelled, and Cedillo is in critical condition at a nearby hospital. You can see a picture of Gabriela, and watch a local news report on the accident . . . here . . .

IS "MACHETE" PRO-ILLEGAL IMMIGRATION PROPAGANDA
One guy from the website InfoWars.com says, quote, "It is not difficult to get 'Machete's' message. It is right on the surface, although the critics either miss or ignore it . . . there is a race war in the works between Mexicans and racist gringos.
"Central to this conflict is the divisive border issue."
This guy points out that JESSICA ALBA'S character has the following line . . . quote, "We didn't cross the border, the border crossed us!"
And "Entertainment Weekly" notes that the bad guy is a Texas politician who's, quote, "running a hate campaign against illegal immigrants."
