KATIE HOLMES: Actress Katie Holmes and her 6-year-old daughter, Suri, were unharmed when a garbage truck hit the car in which they were riding, the New York Daily News said.

"It was nothing major other than the fact that it was Katie Holmes," a police source told the Daily News.

Holmes settled her divorce from Tom Cruise last week. Holmes moved in late June to end their five-year marriage and resides full-time in New York with Suri.
