Kiefer Sutherland Busted for DUI in Hollywood
Kiefer Sutherland was arrested on suspicion of driving under the influence early Tuesday morning in Hollywood, Los Angeles police department officials confirm.
Around 1 a.m., Sutherland, 40, made an illegal U-turn. Officers pulled him over, and the 24 actor subsequently failed a field sobriety test.
He was booked at the LAPD Hollywood station and was released at 5:42 a.m. on $25,000 bail.
A court date of Oct. 16 was set.
A rep for Sutherland said Tuesday: “It would be premature to comment at this time.”
Because the actor was previously convicted of DUI in 2004, he faces a mandatory minimum sentence of four days in jail if convicted for this latest arrest.
Sutherland is also currently serving a five-year probation term for the prior DUI. If a judge deems the actor violated those terms, “Sutherland could get up to 60 days in jail or worse, depending on varying circumstances,” according to DUI lawyer Lawrence Taylor.
