A Las Vegas man has been charged with driving under the influence after crashing into Jennifer Lopez's Rolls-Royce being driven by actress Leah Remini on the California coast in September.

The Associated Press reported Los Angeles County prosecutors as saying Monday that 53-year-old Robert John Reitz was charged with misdemeanor counts of driving under the influence of an alcoholic beverage and driving at nearly twice the legal blood-alcohol limit. He could get six months in jail and a $1,000 fine if convicted.

The singer-actress' vehicle was stopped at a traffic light in Malibu when a pickup truck hit it from behind.

Authorities say Lopez owned the Rolls-Royce carrying her and her two children, but her friend Remini, was driving. No one was injured in the crash.

Reitz was scheduled to be arraigned Monday. Authorities didn't know if he had an attorney.
