TOMS RIVER — Comedian and radio personality Artie Lange has been charged with driving under the influence of an intoxicant and careless driving after a minor traffic accident in central New Jersey.
Toms River police say Lange's 2009 Nissan struck the rear of another vehicle around 1:30 p.m. Friday. Police say no one was injured and both vehicles had only minor damage.
Police say responding officers' physical observations led to the 41-year-old Lange, of Roseland, being charged. He was taken to police headquarters for processing.
He was issued summonses and released pending a municipal court appearance on July 16. A police spokesman did not know if Lange had retained a lawyer.
Lange is a "Howard Stern Show" regular and recently wrote a best-selling book, "Too Fat to Fish."
