The Los Angeles Sheriff’s office has released a statement regarding the car accident of media personality Scott Disick. According to the statement, Disick was not under the influence of alcohol when the accident occurred, and that “the primary cause of the traffic collision was speed”. Disick himself has not yet made any public comment regarding the incident.

Disick, who became a household name after his regular appearances on the show Keeping Up With The Kardashians, met with an accident on Sunday at Calabasas, California. Reports suggest that his Lamborghini SUV flipped over after hitting a stone mailbox in the gated community called The Oaks. The police statement also states that “Mr. Disick suffered minor, non-life threatening injuries and declined medical treatment. He was picked up from the scene by family members and his vehicle was towed away per his request.”
