LOS ANGELES (Reuters) - Actor Lane Garrison of the popular U.S. television show "Prison Break" was in a car accident late on Saturday that killed a 17-year-old boy and injured two other teenagers, Beverly Hills police said on Sunday.

Garrison, 26, was inside his sport utility vehicle when it crashed into a tree in Beverly Hills at about 11:50 p.m. local time, Sergeant Shan Davis said, adding that police were still investigating which of the car's four occupants was driving and what caused the collision.

Garrison received minor injuries, but a 17-year-old boy was pronounced dead at Cedars Sinai Medical Center following the accident. Two 15-year-old girls were also injured, one critically.

Garrison plays "Tweener" on the Fox jailhouse drama "Prison Break." Fox is a unit of News Corp.

MY guess is that alcohol or drugs where involved, most likely alcohol. AS to who was driving, I'm not sure but it is usually the oldest one driving. I hope they dont go easy on him iif he was driving though. If there was no alcohol involved and just an accident, he could get off without any charges, if alcohol is involved voluntary manslughter would be the charge (in my state at lest) some states have specific laws when it com,es to car accidents invovling alchol

it's interesting that he "hit a tree" and caused a murder, but with FUVs, all things are possible.

Prison Break was Fox's fall drama flagship. It just had its fall finale but will be slotted back to back with 24 in January.

This actually sounds like something "Tweener" would do on the show.
