Original American Idol runner-up Justin Guarini was ticketed by Texas authorities for unsafe boat operation last Saturday after nearly hitting a five-year-old girl, according to reports. Guarini and Idol winner Kelly Clarkson were allegedly boating with a group of friends at Grand Prarie's Loyd Park, outside Dallas, when he suddenly piloted a personal watercraft onto the shore.

Guarini reportedly came dangerously close to Allison Heizer, whose father told the Fort Worth Star-Telegram that the singer, who also stars with Clarkson in the current romantic comedy From Justin to Kelly, ran away laughing without apologizing.
