January Jones Flees Accident Scene, No Citation Given
Posted on Fri Jun 11, 2010 08:50 AM PDT
January Jones was involved in a solo accident last night ... in which the actress slammed into three parked cars.
LAPD officers say that the actress had left The London West Hollywood Hotel after watching the Lakers game at around 9pm, and while driving home, she lost control of her Range Rover.
Witnesses say that Jones, who alleges the paparazzi were after her, fled the accident scene on foot saying "I can't deal with this commotion." Despite Jones' claims she was being chased by photographers at the time of the accident, photos of the incident have yet to surface.
Others at the scene claim that January "smelled like a brewery" and that paparazzi were no where in site, according to Hollyscoop. There are also claims that neighbors in the area advised the actress to go home before the cops arrived to avoid a D.U.I.
LAPD tells X17online that Jones walked to her home to call 9-1-1, then returned to the scene. The Mad Men actress was not arrested nor cited. However, her car was impounded. Officers did not take a field sobriety test because they didn't find any evidence of alcohol.
January's rep tells X17online:
- “While being followed by paparazzi, Ms. Jones struck two parked cars. She did not flee the scene; she left her license with a witness and walked to her nearby home to call the police. She immediately returned to the scene to speak with the police. No citation was issued, nobody was injured, there was no alcohol involved and there is no investigation pending.”
LAPD confirms to us that no further investigation will take place.
Do you think January should have been cited or arrested for fleeing the scene?

If anyone else did this,there would be hell to pay.
Hard to believe her being chased, she looks like any other blonde in L.A.
No kidding.
Remember when Paris Hilton's old boyfriend got blinded by the flashlights and hit a parked truck?
It was a huge solid commercial truck and no one was hurt, the only damage was to Paris's own Bentley.
BUt the news pics flashed around the world and right away there were cries of police favoritism here at home. Crazy.
When Halle Berry hit a person and fled the scee she got off scott free too. Guess sometimes it pays to be black.
Why would there be exactly Halle hit a person no citation ...and Hulk Hogan's
son smashed a car left a kid almost brain
damaged.. no big deal there either..
what's up with these bonehead celebrities getting off? double standard seriously
Americans have always accepted that there's one standard of justice for the wealthy or connected and a different standard for everyone else. They seem to get a little testy, however, when that wealthy person is non-white or is deemed a non-worthy celebrity.
Is it fleeing the scene of the crime when you leave to call 911 and come back after calling? People are acting like she pretended nothing happened and tried to get away with it. Also January is not a big celebrity and barely has any recognition. I seriously doubt she "got off" because she's are star.
Great, another drunk driving celeb. They have the money so why dont they use a driver?
