The popular MTV reality show is filming its fourth season in Florence.
The network said in a statement late Monday that two cast members were involved in a crash. The statement said no alcohol was involved and no one was arrested. It provided no further details.
SallyAnn Salsano, executive producer at "Jersey Shore" production company 495, tells The Star-Ledger newspaper that the incident was "just a minor fender bender." She says the show is still filming.
Photos posted on TMZ show Polizzi and Cortese, apparently uninjured, sitting on the sidewalk after the crash. A witness told the celebrity gossip site that Snooki bumped the back of a police car, wedging herself between the car and a highway protection wall. The cop car was reportedly escorting her vehicle.
The show's first and third season were set in Seaside Heights, New Jersey. The second season sent the cast to Miami.
