JACKSON'S DRIVER TURNS HIMSELF IN

A chauffeur employed by MICHAEL JACKSON has turned himself in to police after becoming embroiled in allegations of a hit-and-run accident.

The singer's driver has been accused of smashing into an ambulance and breaking off its wing mirror as he went to meet Jackson at a Los Angeles hospital on Wednesday (22Apr09).

Police described the incident outside Cedars-Sinai Medical Center as a hit-an-run after the car involved failed to stop.

Emergency Medical Technician (EMT) Jamin Mauro, who was sitting in the parked ambulance, claims to have been treated for head injuries following the accident.

And now Jackson's driver, who has yet to be named, has handed himself over to authorities, appearing at a Los Angeles police station on Thursday (24Apr09) night after hearing media reports about the smash.

The chauffeur claims he was "unaware" of the accident and did not realise he had clipped the side of the ambulance, according to Radar Online.

Police have yet to file charges against the man, who remains free while the investigation continues.
