LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA: Pete Davidson, who earlier this year crashed his speeding car into a Beverly Hills residence, has now been officially charged with reckless driving. The 'Saturday Night Live' star was reportedly charged with one count of reckless driving on Friday by the LA Country District Attorney's Office.

The charges follow Davidson's "highspeed" crash into a residence on March 4 at 11:00 pm in the Flats section of Beverley Hills after he lost control of his Mercedes.

Fire hydrant was destroyed as Pete's vehicle jumped the curb before hitting the home

The publication was informed by law enforcement sources that Chase Sui, Davidson's girlfriend, was also riding in the vehicle at the time of the collision. A fire hydrant was destroyed as Pete's vehicle jumped the curb before hitting the home, according to people who witnessed the accident, even though it is still unknown how Davidson lost control of his vehicle. However, nobody was wounded in the accident, according to reports.

The 16-year-old girl of the homeowner was also 'a bit' traumatized

Police at the time didn't think drinking or drugs were a factor in the collision. Notably, Davidson was not detained after the incident. The 16-year-old girl of the homeowner was also "a bit" traumatized, as per the media outlet. Apparently, the homeowner mentioned that he has no grudge against Davidson and he had no intention to sue the comedian. The Daily Mail reported that the severity of the crash had toppled the house's foundation to the ground, necessitating its full demolition.

"Luckily, no one was seriously injured as a result of this collision. We know that reckless driving can have devastating consequences. In 2022, traffic fatalities in Los Angeles have reached the highest levels seen in 20 years. This is an alarming trend that we cannot ignore. As a result, it's crucial that we take all allegations of reckless driving seriously and hold those responsible accountable," a spokesperson for DA's office told TMZ.

The couple had spent the day sunbathing on a Hawaiian beach

The mishap occurred only hours after Davidson attended the Kids' Choice Awards in Los Angeles on Saturday night. The couple had spent the day sunbathing on a Hawaiian beach before returning to the mainland for the ceremony.

Davidson, a former 'Saturday Night Live' cast member, has dated a number of women, including supermodel Emily Ratajkowski, after splitting from Kim Kardashian, 42, in August last year after nine months together. In 2021, Davidson and Sui Wonders met while working as love interests on the horror and comedy film 'Bodies Bodies Bodies'.
