Former Baywatch actor David Charvet is accused of hitting a dog with his vehicle in Malibu. The incident occurred on the morning of April 16, 2026, as the owner was walking her dogs in a gated community. Charvet's pickup truck allegedly struck Sunday, an 11-year-old white English Labrador, who later died after being taken to a vet.
According to reports, Charvet did not stop at the scene but drove out of the community and contacted authorities. The Lost Hills Sheriff's station confirmed they have been in contact with the dog's owner. Police are classifying the event as a 'traffic collision' and not a hit-and-run because Charvet reported the incident. Investigations are ongoing.
Charvet, who has strong ties to Malibu and is involved in local construction, has opted not to comment on the allegations. He is known for his roles in Baywatch and Melrose Place.
