Britney Charged With Hit-and-Run

by Jes

spearsb_blog.jpgBritney Spears is in yet more legal trouble: The Los Angeles City Attorney has filed hit-and-run charges against her.

The troubled pop superstar has ended a week in which her lawyer and manager both quit her employ as she fought her ex-husband for child custody with a new legal headache.

It dates back to a parking lot incident on Aug. 6, which was caught on camera by paparazzi photographers.

A careless Spears accidentally collided with Kim Robard-Rifkin’s vehicle as she tried to park her Mercedes Benz in Van Nuys, California.

After inspecting the damage on her own car, Spears failed to contact Robard-Rifkin in accordance with California law.

And that’s not the only driving charge the City Attorney dropped on the pop star on Friday–she also faces a misdemeanor count of driving without a valid California license.

Each charge carries a maximum of six months in jail.

Britney’s arraignment hearing is set for Oct. 10 in Van Nuys Superior Court.

And the latest controversy seems to have turned Spears into a wreck–she was spotted sobbing while shopping in Los Angeles as the news of her driving crimes broke.
