A bare-bones police report released by police showed Beador was arrested in front of 500 Clubhouse Ave. and charged with misdemeanor hit-and-run and DUI alcohol, and eventually released from the Newport Beach jail on a $2,500 bond.

The high-profile incident is already making the rounds on social media where unconfirmed photographs of the crash shows Beador’s vehicle allegedly jumped the curb and smashed into a cement flower bed in front of a home. Another photo allegedly shows the back of Beador’s black car making a getaway.

Photographs obtained by the N.Y. Post showed a piece of Beador’s car lying on the mangled chunks of the concrete flower bed along with up rooted bush.

The post included snarky comments from trolls who griped: “I’m most concerned about Archie,” or “She has all this money why couldn’t she just pay to have a driver or an UBER???”

"If there was a dog and the dog was injured, we would've gotten help for it and animal control would have been called. So, I imagine the dog is fine,” police Spokesman Sgt. Steve Oberon told RadarOnline.com.
