Bobby Brown arrested for driving under influence of alcohol

Whitney Houston’s ex-husband Bobby Brown spent a few hours behind bars Monday after his arrest in connection with Driving Under Influence (DUI), police said.

Brown, 43, was pulled over in Los Angeles’ Reseda neighbourhood about 12:20 p.m., when cops spotted him driving while talking on a cell phone without using a hands-free device, the Los Angeles Times reports. That’s been illegal in California since 2009, according to the California Department of Motor Vehicles.
Officers conducted a field sobriety test, which Brown allegedly failed, police said. So what punishments could Brown possibly face for his alleged cell-phone and DUI violations?
That will likely depend on how many DUI arrests appear on Bobby Brown’s record. Monday’s DUI arrest seems to be at least Brown’s second DUI: He was convicted of DUI in Georgia in 1996 and served eight days in jail, gossip website TMZ reports.
