Los Angeles County prosecutors have charged former state legislator Walter Karabian with misdemeanor assault for allegedly running into a parking attendant with his car last month during a USC football game.

Karabian, 71, allegedly tried to drive his car into a parking structure at Exposition Park but was stopped by a female attendant who refused him entry for not having a proper permit.

Authorities then allege the attorney drove his car forward, striking the woman several times. She was not seriously injured.
