Wayne Brady Car Accident Leads To Fight With Driver
Wayne Brady did not have the best day recently. According to TMZ, the actor and comedian was in a car accident on Pacific Coast Highway in Malibu. While a car accident is stressful enough, the confrontation between Brady and the driver started out with a heated verbal exchange, which then turned physical.
The other driver took off and was subsequently arrested on charges of battery, DUI, and hit-and-run after he was tracked down by authorities.
Accident Sunday Night

The two drivers then pulled over before the situation escalated both verbally and physically. Brady dialed 911 to report the incident after the altercation occurred and the other man fled the scene.
