Extra Gabriella Cedillo was seriously injured filming Transformers 3 on Wednesday, while filming a stunt that went wrong.

Sources on set say that a "vehicle was being towed by another vehicle.  The cable between the two vehicles broke.  It whipped around and slicked through the woman's car and sliced through her skull."

Cedillo, 24, is not a stuntwoman, but was just an extra on the set.  Extras were paid $25 to use their personal cars during filming.  When the accident occurred, Cedillo was in her own 2006 Toyota.

After brain surgery on Thursday, the aspiring actress is in stable condition.  More about Gabriella Cedillo.
