Justin Bieber
Cleared
in Alleged Hit and Run
Justin Bieber was under investigation for a possible hit and run accident involving a paparazzo overnight -- but police have now cleared JB of any wrongdoing ... TMZ has learned.

Justin was leaving the Laugh Factory on Sunset Boulevard around 11:45 PM in his infamous white Ferrari. His pal Lil Twist was there as a passenger, and several paps were on scene shooting the duo.

Once Justin got behind the wheel he motioned for some of the photogs to clear out of the way -- but when he drove off he appeared to pin one of them between the Ferrari and a parked car.

Justin did not stop.

LAPD launched an investigation and interviewed Justin a few hours after the incident ... and he told cops he didn't know he hit the photographer (not a TMZ employee).

Police say the photog was not seriously hurt, but was at fault because he was a pedestrian in the roadway.

So, Justin's in the clear ... this time.

Jose Canseco
Cleared
in Sexual Assault Case Las Vegas cops have cleared former baseball slugger Jose Canseco of allegedly sexually assaulting a woman last month.

Vegas detectives have closed the case and will not seek criminal charges.

Canseco was adamant from the get go ... the woman's claims were BS and the two had consensual sex. He took his own polygraph to prove his innocence, and passed with flying colors.

As TMZ first reported, Canseco was photographed with the accuser just hours before the alleged incident, and the two seemed more than cozy.
