Actor and comedian Pete Davidson was charged with reckless driving Friday after he crashed into the side of a Beverly Hills home in California earlier this year.

A spokesperson for the Los Angeles County district attorneys office told HuffPost on Friday that Davidson was charged with one misdemeanor count of reckless driving over the March 4 collision.

Though the spokesperson said that no one was seriously injured as a result of the crash, he noted that reckless driving can have devastating consequences.

Photos published by Page Six showed Davidson speaking to police after his Mercedes-Benz jumped a curb, skidded across a lawn and slammed into a home. The incident took place at around 11 p.m. on a Saturday night, and Davidsons girlfriend, Chase Sui Wonders, was reportedly also in the car.
