'Jersey Shore' Cast Will Return To Garden State To Tape New Season

SEASIDE HEIGHTS, N.J. (CBSNewYork/AP) -- The cast of MTV's "Jersey Shore" will return to New Jersey to tape the fifth season of the reality series after the cast says ciao to Italy.

Viacom, which is MTV's parent company, announced production will begin in Seaside Heights sometime in June.

The fourth season, which was taped in Florence, Italy, is scheduled to premiere on Aug. 4.

Italian police recently revoked Nicole "Snooki" Polizzi's international driver's license after the "Jersey Shore" star was in a fender-bender with a police car.

Two policemen were slightly injured.
