Charles Barkley mug shot

Charles Barkley was arrested for DUI last night.

Basketball legend Charles Barkley has been arrested for drunk driving.
The 45-year-old former hoops star – who now plans to run for political office – was stopped after allegedly running a red light in Scottsdale, Arizona, at 1.30am.
Officers who pulled him over then took him to a nearby mobile command post for a blood test after he declined to give a breath test, according to police.
Barkley was issued a citation for driving while impaired and released pending the results, which normally takes about a week.
“He was very nice and professional,” police Lt. Eric Shuhandler said, adding he entire arrest process took place without incident, and Barkley was civil and cooperative throughout. He left in a cab.
“There was nothing unusual about how he was taken into custody,” Shuhandler said. “He was treated exactly like we treat anybody else.”
For a first offense, someone found guilty of the charge Barkley faces might expect between one to 10 days in jail, and the suspension of driving privileges.

I would have to imagine based on the mug shot that the results will show he was intoxicated… and then how about them plans to run for office??

What a day… Amy Winehouse’s boobs, Jennifer Aniston naked, Jennifer Garner in labor, and Matt Dillon & Charles Barkely mug shots!
