LeAnn Rimes won't face criminal charges for the alleged hit-and-run fender-bender she was involved in last month in Brentwood, Calif., TMZ reports. She was also in a separate incident just yesterday, when she accidentally rear-ended a Mercedes.
The LAPD questioned the country star at her home on August 21 -- right after she was accused of fleeing the scene. TMZ says LeAnn claimed she wasn't aware she'd hit the car, and cooperated with police. The case was officially closed yesterday.
