David Beckham and son involved in car accident

Former footballer David Beckham and his son Brooklyn were reportedly involved in a car accident here.

The accident occurred outside the training ground of football team Arsenal on Saturday, where Brooklyn, 15, played in a match with the group's youth team, reports telegraph.co.uk.

A source said the 39-year-old was driving an Audi and had picked up his son when the crash occurred, adding that the two were spared serious injury due to the deployment of the car's airbags.

"They were shaken. It was quite a heavy prang at quite a speed, but everybody walked away uninjured. Everybody's fine. Thankfully, the car's airbags deployed," the source said.
