LeAnn Rimes was questioned by police following an apparently minor traffic accident Thursday night in Los Angeles.

"There was a routine police investigation into this incident, and a police report was filed," says Rimes's spokesperson. "We are confident that this matter will be resolved shortly and LeAnn will be cleared."

The accident occurred at about 7:30 p.m. in the city's West Los Angeles neighborhood. There were no injuries and no charges were filed.
