Succession star Alan Ruck has been involved in a four-car collision that ended with his truck smashing into a pizza restaurant.

Ruck, who stars as Connor Roy in the well-loved HBO series, was involved in the ordeal last Tuesday night (October 24) at the crossroads of La Brea Avenue and Hollywood Boulevard.

In footage of the crash, the 67-year-old celebrity's electric vehicle rear-ended a car at a stoplight and then collided with BMW SUV before it crashed into the pizzeria.

The rear-ended car also collided with a vehicle that was trying to turn left at the light.

The ordeal is still under investigation, but it's said that there were no signs of Ruck or any of the other drivers being under the influence, sources told TMZ.

A 32-year-old man was taken to hospital after the crash, but it isn't thought that there were any serious injuries.

Speaking after the incident, the owner of the restaurant, Tim Ratcliff, said the Emmy-nominated star was more concerned about other people's welfare then his own.

"I asked him, ‘Are you okay?’ And the first thing out of his mouth was, ‘Is everyone (else) okay? I think I hit someone. Is he okay?’” he told TMZ.

"The whole building shook, and I thought a bomb or something had exploded.”

UNILAD have contacted the LAPD for comment.

While Ruck already had a host of movie accolades under his belt - such as Ferris Buller's Day Off, Spin City, Speed, and Ghost Town - arguably Succession propelled him into even further stardom.

The HBO show had an all star cast, with Brian Cox, Jeremy Strong, Kieran Culkin and Sarah Snook playing Ruck's on-screen family.

While Succession has been hailed as one the the best series to air in recent years, it officially came to a close earlier this year after its fourth season.

Jesse Armstrong, the show's writer, explained why it ended so soon.

"I’ve never thought this could go on forever," he told The New Yorker earlier this year.

"The end has always been kind of present in my mind.

"From Season 2, I’ve been trying to think: Is it the next one, or the one after that, or is it the one after that?"

Then, in December 2021, Armstrong and his team agreed that season four would be Succession's last.

The final series aired in May and received rave reviews - which made it even more difficult to bid the chaotic Roy family a goodbye.
