Pop star George Michael crashed into three cars while trying to park his SUV in London early Sunday, according to a Daily Mirror report which quoted witnesses. Police confirmed that three parked cars had been damaged and that the four-wheel-drive had been found but said the driver had not yet been identified.
The anonymous witnesses quoted by Monday's edition of the tabloid said they had recognized George Michael.
The paper said a representative of the singer had tried to contact the car owners later Sunday to reimburse them for the damage.
The 42-year-old former Wham! singer, whose hits include "Careless Whisper" and "Wake Me Up Before You Go Go", was taken into custody in central London in February on suspicion of possessing drugs after being found slumped at the wheel of a car.
He spent the night at a police station before being released, and said in a statement: "It is my own stupid fault, as usual."
