Vince Vaughn convicted of reckless driving after entering no contest plea

Hollywood star Vince Vaughn has been convicted of reckless driving.

This comes after after his arrest for failing a drunken driving test last year.

On Friday an attorney for the 49-year-old "Wedding Crashers" star entered a no contest plea to the misdemeanor count in Los Angeles Superior Court.

Vaughn was arrested June 10 at a sobriety checkpoint, in the upscale community of Manhattan Beach.

Police say the Dodgeball actor repeatedly refused to get out of his car.

He then failed a field sobriety test and a blood alcohol test.

Vaughn was sentenced to three years of unsupervised probation while also being ordered to complete a three-month alcohol program.

He has been told that if he drives drunk and kills someone he could be charged with murder.

Vaughn's attorney Blair Berk declined comment following the hearing.
