David Cassidy, a former teen idol and star of the 1970s U.S. television series "The Partridge Family," was arrested in California on Friday night on suspicion of drunken driving his third such arrest since 2010.
Cassidy, 63, was stopped on a road near Los Angeles International Airport after making a right turn on a red light in violation of a posted sign, the California Highway Patrol said in a news release.
After smelling alcohol coming from Cassidy's vehicle, an officer gave him a field sobriety test that showed a blood alcohol content of 0.19 percent, the patrol said. That level is more than twice the 0.08 legal limit for driving in California.
Cassidy was alone in the car, the patrol said.
Cassidy was charged in August with drunken driving in Schodack, N.Y., after initially being stopped for not dimming his headlights, authorities said at the time. He was arrested and convicted for drunken driving in Florida in 2010.
Maybe he’ll “find Jesus on the jailhouse floor”.
I used to play that I was in their band and singing with them. I took choir from 7-12 grade and have a decent soprano voice. I had the Shirley Partridge parts in all the songs in their album down pat.
