Mel Gibson was arrested by the Los Angeles County Sheriff's Department in Malibu, Calif. early this morning for suspicion of DUI. Bail was set at $5,000.
He was pulled over for speeding in his 2006 Lexus as he was heading eastbound on the Pacific Coast Highway and a Breathalyzer test was administered. The arrest report lists the time of arrest as 2:36AM and the time booked as 4:06AM. Gibson was released at 9:45 a.m.
Gibson apparently succumbed to the Passion of the Grape.
UPDATE: This account of the arrest is pretty disturbing. After making The Passion of the Christ many Jewish critics complained that Gibson's movie might inspire violence against Jews. That didn't happen, but it looks like they may have had a reason to be concerned about Gibson.
UPDATE2: Gibson apologizes, but this one will leave a mark.
