Boy killed, 2 girls hurt as actor’s SUV hits tree

Actor Lane Garrison of TV’s “Prison Break” escaped serious injury when his SUV struck a tree, but a 17-year-old boy was killed and two other teens in the vehicle were injured, police said.

The accident occurred about 11:50 p.m. Saturday when the vehicle jumped a curb and hit a tree. The 17-year-old boy was taken to Cedars-Sinai Medical Center, where he died. His name was not released.

Two 15-year-old girls also were injured, one critically, police said. Their conditions were not immediately released. Garrison, 26, suffered minor injuries.

Authorities were trying to determine who was driving the SUV, which was registered to Garrison.

A native of Dallas, Garrison plays “Tweener” on Fox’s “Prison Break.” He has worked mainly in television but appears in the film “Shooter,” which is due out next year. Garrison’s publicist, Catherine Olim, did not immediately return a phone call Sunday.
