Concerns for the well-being of Pax Jolie-Pitt, the son of Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt, have been raised after a recent e-bike accident left him hospitalized.

As friends and family rally around the young adult, sources close to the situation have revealed that his actress mother is seeking help for her "troubled" son after recent reports suggested he has been involved in other bike accidents before this critical one.

Pax Jolie-Pitt was previously said to have entered a "stable condition," but fears about how serious his condition is have now increased as he has reportedly not left the hospital yet.

According to the Daily Mail, the "Maleficent" actress is rallying around to ensure that Pax is okay after he recently suffered a bizarre e-bike accident.

The 20-year-old was riding his electric during rush hour on Monday, July 29, around the busy Los Feliz Blvd. in Los Angeles when he rammed into a waiting car at an intersection.

He was subsequently rushed to a hospital, where sources claimed he entered a "stable condition," as Jolie was understood to have remained by his side. However, it turns out that he's still in the hospital until now, sparking fears that the accident might be a little more serious than first thought.

"His friends are concerned about him," a source told the news outlet, adding that Pax has "been reckless" and that friends are "worried."

Pax Jolie-Pitt Has Not Been Charged For Any Crime After The Bike Crash Incident

According to the news outlet, LAPD sources remained mute on the possibility of Pax facing charges, claiming there's nothing more to add other than the initial reports of a traffic collision.

California's mandatory helmet law, as written in Vehicle Code Section 27803, states that it is "unlawful to operate a motorcycle, motor-driven cycle, or motorized bicycle if the driver or any passenger is not wearing a safety helmet."

Pax, who was born in Vietnam and adopted by Jolie at age three, didn't wear a helmet when the nasty collision occurred.

Medics initially feared he'd suffered a brain bleed at the time they first responded to him on the accident scene as he reportedly complained of a hip injury and pain in the head.

It's not known if Pitt has been able to get across to his estranged son, but the actor was reportedly left angry as he wasn't able to reach out to him after learning of his accident.

His relationship with Pax and several of his other children soured following an alleged incident between him and Jolie on a private airplane in 2016.

"Brad is distraught and worried over Pax's accident, but he is unable to reach him," a source told the Daily Mail. "It is very upsetting to Brad whenever he hears of one of the kids being hurt, and he feels completely powerless because there is nothing that he can do at all."

"A father's inclination would be to go to the hospital or to call him. He's tried so many times but the kids won't take his calls. His hands are tied," the source continued.

"Brad doesn't think that Pax should be driving a scooter without a helmet to begin with - he should have been in a car," the insider added, subtly taking a swipe at Jolie.

Four years ago, Pax slammed his father in a bitter online message for Father's Day celebration, calling the "Bullet Train" actor an "a-hole" and an "awful human being."

"You time and time and again prove yourself to be a terrible and despicable person. You have no consideration or empathy toward your four youngest children who tremble in fear when in your presence," Pax allegedly wrote.

"You will never understand the damage you have done to my family because you are incapable of doing so. You have made the lives of those closest to me a constant hell. You may tell yourself and the world whatever you want, but the truth will come to light someday. So, Happy Father's Day, you f-cking awful human being," Pax added.

Some of Pitt's children have seemingly dropped his last name, and his biological daughter, Shiloh Jolie-Pitt, is taking things a step further by trying to make her name change legal.

The Oscar-winning actor is also understood to have a "non-existent" relationship with his older kids.

Pitt's lengthy court battle with Jolie over the sale of her shares in the Chateau Miraval winery has also not helped to heal their family rift.
