(CNN) – Actor and comedian Pete Davidson has been charged with reckless driving in connection with a car accident in Beverly Hills earlier this year, CNN has learned.
Greg Risling, assistant director of media relations for the Los Angeles County District Attorney’s Office, said Davidson was charged with reckless driving. His performance is scheduled for July 27th.
“We believe Mr Davidson committed reckless driving which ultimately resulted in him being involved in a serious collision at a home,” Rislong said. “Fortunately, no one was seriously injured in this collision. We know that reckless driving can have devastating consequences.”
The March 4 incident occurred around 11 p.m. PT when a vehicle Davidson was driving on a residential street crashed into a fire hydrant and a house.
CNN has reached out to Davidson officials for comment.
“In 2022, traffic fatalities in Los Angeles reached their highest level in 20 years,” Risling also reported on Friday. “This is an alarming trend that we cannot ignore. It is therefore vital that we take all allegations of reckless driving seriously and hold those responsible accountable.”
