TOMS RIVER - Comedian and radio personality Artie Lange has been charged with driving under the influence of an intoxicant and careless driving after a minor traffic accident.

Toms River police say Lange's 2009 Nissan struck the rear of another vehicle around 1:30 p.m. Friday. Police say no one was injured and both vehicles had only minor damage.

Police say responding officers' physical observations led to the 41-year-old Lange, of Roseland, being charged. He was taken to police headquarters for processing.

He was issued summonses and released pending a municipal court appearance on July 16.

Lange is a "Howard Stern Show" regular and recently wrote a best-selling book, "Too Fat to Fish." He is a regular in Atlantic City casinos and he has a show scheduled tonight at 7 p.m. at the Ocean County Library.
