Exclusive -- Keanu Stopped By Cops at LAX

Keanu Reeves was pulled over by airport police at Los Angeles International Airport today for a traffic violation, but escaped with only a warning.

It's not the biggest crime in the world certainly, but anything that goes down at airports these days is eventful. Reeves was pulled over for allegedly violating California Vehicle Code 21453(a) -- failing to stop at a signal or, in common parlance, blowing a red light. It happened at 3:00 p.m. PST. The cop did not issue a citation and let Reeves go with a warning.

It's unclear what the "Matrix" star was doing at the airport, although we know he was on the upper level, which is for departing passengers.

A rep for Reeves could not be reached for comment.

46. I happen to know that driving in LAX is a confusing madhouse and missing a stop sign is easier than you would think. I was in California for the Constantine premier. I had seen Keanu in Chicago and decided to take my vacation then. Your attention to cars stopping and changing lanes constantly and people walking between and around cars keeps you looking in a million directions at once and I 'am a good driver so lets just say the next time I visit , its a cab for me.

53. BECAUSE YOUR A STAR NOW YOU GET OFF.................WHAT THE HECK IS THIS WORLD COMING TOO.

54. Lets hope one of your family members doesn't get hit by a drunk driver, or someone running a red light. I had a friend nearly killed, yes by someone who ran a simple as you all think red light. They are even lucky to be alive today. The world is going nuts, ok for a star to run red lights and do everything, but you go and try it, the average joe comment was right, too many people blow stuff off nowadays because of something they see on the screen. Don't let the movies blind your good common sense, if it does you have no sense of reasoning. Next time the news says a child killed by someone running a red light, lets hope it is not yours! Or a person who has driven drunk more then once and left your family member for dead.

56. To Joe Jetiz: Shakira is part arab and part latin. Her grandmother (from mother) was from Catalonia, Spain (near Barcelona). His father is arab. One of their two Shakira's surnames (in spanic culture we keep the father's one and mother's one) is Ripoll , a catalan surname. It's not a marketing play.

57. So...you're mad at me because an average joe got off as well - Go yell at them, you imbecile.

58. Oh and by the way - where did I say it was ok that they had gotten off with a warning?? I was merely pointing out that you dont ONLY have to be a celeb to get away with it. Calm down, you lunatic and READ the posts PROPERLY before commenting on them. It's not hard to do.
