(CBS) SANTA MONICA, Calif. A Lamborghini crashed into five parked cars in Santa Monica Thursday, and the driver was booked on suspicion of driving under the influence of drugs or alcohol, police said.

The accident at Ocean Avenue and San Vicente Boulevard occurred about 2:30 a.m., Santa Monica police Sgt. Shane Talbot said.

David August Johnson and a male passenger in the Italian sports car were taken to a hospital to be checked out, but neither appeared to be seriously injured, Talbot said.

A woman who lives near the intersection said she heard a high-powered car going up and down the street shortly before the wreck.

The silver-colored Lamborghini, which is valued at approximately $300,000, appeared to be totaled, and at least three of the parked cars were heavily damaged.

Lamborghinis, most of which are powered by a V-12 engine, are among the most powerful and expensive street-legal vehicles made.
