ABC News has just reported that "Prison Break" star Lane Garrison, a Dallas native who was involved in a fatal car accident that killed a teenage boy in December will be charged today with three felony counts, including vehicular manslaughter.
Garrison, 26, is expected to be charged with felony gross vehicular manslaughter while intoxicated; driving under the influence of alcohol or drugs; and providing alcohol to a minor, according to Jane Robinson, a spokeswoman for the Los Angeles County district attorney.
Garrison will reportedly surrender to authorities Thursday afternoon.
The actor who rose to fame for his appearance as Tweener on the FOX drama "Prison Break" struck a tree December 2, killing 17-year-old Beverly Hills High School student Vahaghn Setian and injuring two 15-year-old girls. Garrison himself suffered minor injuries.
Analysis of his blood sample taken following the crash confirmed a blood-alcohol level of 0.20 percent. According to those findings, the actor also had traces of cocaine in his system. If convicted, Garrison could face up to 10 years in prison.
On Tuesday, Garrison was photographed getting off a bus in Los Angeles - his driving license was revoked after the crash. The image below was taken in late January near his Los Angeles home.
