BEVERLY HILLS—Comedian and actor Pete Davidson has been charged with one count of reckless driving after he crashed a vehicle into a Beverly Hills home on May 4.
The Los Angeles District Attorney’s Office confirmed the charge in a statement on Friday, June 16.
“We believe that Mr. Davidson engaged in reckless driving, which ultimately resulted in his involvement in a serious collision into a home,” the statement reads. “Luckily, no one was seriously injured as a result of this collision.”
The incident reportedly occurred at approximately 11 p.m. on May 4 in a residential area of Beverly Hills near the intersection of Rodeo Drive and Elevado Avenue.

No one was hurt in the crash, but damages were caused to a fire hydrant and the home. According to reports, the Beverly Hills Police Department do not believe drugs or alcohol were involved at this time, but the investigation is still ongoing. No arrests were made.
In Los Angeles, a reckless driving charge can result in a sentence of up to 90 days in jail and a $1,000 fine. Davidson is scheduled to be arraigned on July 27.
