A paparazzo has been charged with hit-and-run after allegedly ramming his car into the back of a security vehicle following Michael Jackson's children.

The late superstar's three kids, Prince Michael, 12, Paris, 11, and seven-year-old Prince Michael II, were being driven by their nanny Grace Rwaramba in Encino, Los Angeles on Wednesday afternoon when an overeager photographer bumped into the back of the car tailing the Jackson clan.

The unidentified photographer fled the scene of the incident without exchanging insurance information - and now the Los Angeles Police Department has filed a misdemeanor hit-and-run count against him, according to RadarOnline.com.

Shortly after the incident, the kids' grandfather Joe Jackson confirmed the youngsters and his wife Katherine, who was also in the car, were all safe at home.

Authorities insist the damage to the security vehicle was minor and confirmed no one was injured in the crash.
