Jax Taylor hit a car in Los Angeles traffic … and didn’t exchange information with the driver he rear-ended in the accident.
According to reports from TMZ, The Valley star admitted he had a fender-bender and left the scene after supposedly seeing no damage to the vehicle or injuries to the people in the car.
The scene of the crime:
As per a Nextdoor post, a woman named Michelle West claimed her boyfriend was stopped at a red light in Valley Village when a vehicle ran into the back of his car. Seemingly, Jax evaluated the damage he caused and decided to flee the scene
Michelle says her BF chased the vehicle driven by The Valley’s villain to a nearby gas station where a paparazzi was taking photos and video. A man who appears to be Jax chatted with another person in the aftermath of the accident.
The accident (Jax’s Version):
A rep for the former Vanderpump Rules star told TMZ … “Jax was involved in what he believed to be a minor fender bender yesterday afternoon. His vehicle bumped into the rear end of the car in front of him while at a red light.”
“The driver immediately stepped out of his vehicle, enraged which caused an unpleasant interaction between both parties.”
Judgement by Jax:
“Jax saw no visible damage to either vehicle and no apparent injuries to either involved, and therefore proceeded to leave the scene. Since this altercation, Jax has filed a claim with his insurance company to investigate further. He will follow the recommendations provided by his insurance company.”
Law enforcement sources told the tabloid that “the man who was allegedly rear-ended came into the police station — but was told to file an online report. It’s unclear if he’s done so.”
What’s next?
Michelle West and her boyfriend aren’t going to let Jax off the hook. Michelle’s BF “took pictures of the damage and Jax’s license plate at the gas station.”
