ASPEN, Colo.—British comedian Rowan Atkinson, known for playing the bumbling television and movie character Mr. Bean, made a mistake of his own when he backed an SUV into an Aspen woman’s car.
Atkinson was moving from a metered spot Thursday when he struck the Volkswagen Jetta, police said.
“He was backing out of a parking spot and didn’t see the car behind him,” said police Sgt. Dan Davis. “There was a little bit of damage to the car. He put a ding in it.”
Davis said the accident was minor, and no citations were issued.
A phone message left for Atkinson’s management in London late Saturday was not immediately returned.
