"Baywatch" alum David Charvet has been accused of killing a dog in Malibu on Thursday morning.
Lost Hills law enforcement told Fox News Digital that they are not considering this incident a hit-and-run. Police officers responded to a reported traffic collision regarding a vehicle and a dog.
When they arrived, both parties were at the scene and the owner of the dog took their pet to receive immediate medical attention. Law enforcement said the dog passed away, and a report was written, pending further investigation.
Law enforcement would not confirm whether Charvet was involved in the incident.
According to TMZ, Charvet was operating a vehicle when it struck and killed a dog just before 6 a.m.
Vera Errico, the owner of the dog, told the outlet she was walking her three dogs, all on leashes, in a gated Malibu community and Charvet was driving a pickup truck when he hit one of her animals.
