About 9:24 p.m., officers received a radio call about a collision involving a vehicle and pedestrian on Hamilton Drive near Wilshire Boulevard, Beverly Hills Police Department Sgt. Matthew Stout said.

When officers arrived, a 57-year-old man was injured at the scene, Stout said. He was transported with non-life-threatening injuries to Cedars-Sinai Medical Center, he said.

Stout said Bieber was the driver of the vehicle.
