Britney Spears' car is impounded
Pop singer Britney Spears has had her car impounded after abandoning it in the middle of the road.
According to People magazine, the singer left her white Mercedes on a road in Brentwood, California, after she got a flat tire.
Lt David Grimes of the Los Angeles Police Department, West LA, said: "Ms Spears's car was impounded.
"Officers on the scene told me it was blocking the roadway, and that it was unsafe enough to leave at the location."
"It was towed by a private company that's contracted with the city. Her car is being held at the official police garage tow yard."
Grimes also said: "There's not a hold on the vehicle. She just needs to show up to obtain it. She'll have to pay tow fees, and that total cost depends on how many days she leaves it there. But she won't get any citations or fines."
Spears reportedly accepted a lift from a paparazzo who was trailing her after she decided to abandon her car.
