LOS ANGELES— Comedian and television host Ellen DeGeneres luckily walked away from a three-vehicle collision caused by a suspected drunken driver in a Porsche, police said.
"She had a little neck and back pain, but it doesn't look like it was anything serious," said Sgt. Ken Buscarino of the Los Angeles police said after Friday's accident.
The collision happened before 4 p.m. on Sunset Boulevard, Buscarino said.
DeGeneres stopped her 2006 Porsche Carrera at a light, followed by a 2002 Buick Le Sabre with two men in their 20s.
A 2002 Porsche Carrera driven by a 52-year-old woman slammed into the back of the Buick and caused a chain reaction, police said.
The woman was arrested on suspicion of drunken driving and suffered minor cuts on her leg, police said. The two men in the Buick suffered scratches.
DeGeneres' passenger, a woman in her mid-30s, complained of minor back pain. DeGeneres' Porsche received moderate damage.
No one required medical attention at the scene, Buscarino said.
