Kim Scott, the ex-wife of rapper Eminem, is facing two misdemeanor charges in Michigan after authorities say she crashed her Range Rover with her son and his friends inside. According to court records, Scott has been charged with operating a vehicle while intoxicated and failure to stop or identify after causing property damage. The incident occurred Monday evening in her residential neighborhood.
Authorities reported the events unfolded around 8 p.m. after Scott left her home with her son, Parker, and three of his friends to go shopping. During the drive, investigators determined that her vehicle struck a parked car on the street. Police said she did not stop following the collision and instead continued driving. Officials say she then attempted to pull into her driveway, where her Range Rover struck the garage door of her home.
A neighbor who witnessed the crashes contacted law enforcement. When officers arrived at the scene, Scott was transported to a hospital for treatment of injuries. She was released early Tuesday morning.
Court records confirm the two misdemeanor charges related to intoxicated driving and leaving the scene of property damage. Scott’s attorney stated that she has not been arrested and that he is not aware of any active warrant. He indicated that if a warrant is issued, she will surrender to authorities.
Scott and Eminem were married in 1999 and divorced in 2001. They briefly remarried in 2006 before separating again. They share one daughter together.
As of now, the case remains pending, and authorities have not announced a court date.
