Bruce Springsteen is in the middle of a DWI case after he was busted in his home state ... TMZ has learned.
Law enforcement sources tell TMZ ... the Boss was arrested on November 14 at Gateway National Recreation Area in Sandy Hook, NJ. Springsteen was cited for DWI, reckless driving and consuming alcohol in a closed area. He'll have a court appearance coming in the next few weeks.
We're told the rock icon was cooperative throughout the arrest. As far as we can tell, this is his first arrest for DWI.
The DWI news comes on the heels of a different first for Bruce -- he was featured in his first-ever commercial on Super Bowl Sunday for Jeep. The 2-minute ad featured Bruce in an unspecified middle America type town ... offering his patriotic vision and a message of hope.
We've reached out to Springsteen's camp for comment, but no word back yet.

Brews Springsteen
Was he driving a Jeep, with an earring in his right ear?
And all that money he has, he chooses to drive drunk instead of calling for a cab or limo or I assume he has endless friends who could have driven him? I smell a publicity stunt. Where’s his mug shot?

Not really. His ad in the Super Bowl for Jeep brought attention to himself.
The ad has already been pulled.

DWI? Driving While Idiot?
“He’ll have a court appearance coming in the next few weeks”
So he gets more time than President Trump to prepare
Raise your hand if you give a $hit.
Probably leaker by his PR people to show his “everyman” side, since he picked up flak for being an elitist pretending to be “just folks” in the commercial.
So was he by himself at the park? Doubt it.
Putting other peoples lives in danger is unacceptable
Boss Man. Grow up. Get a chauffeur. Sure you
can afford one.
Dang, I only came here looking for a mug shot.
Evidently not everyone thinks he is "the boss", particularly the LEOs.
Reap what ya sow bruce
This happened a few weeks before Thanksgiving.
The matter is closed, right?
Somebody’s trying to stir the pot.
Maybe it’s Chris Christie. Christie is a HUGE Springsteen fan, but Bruce has often made rude, fat shaming jokes at Christie’s expense.
What does “Consuming alcohol in a closed area” mean?
Jeep needs one of those upside-down bumper stickers saying “If you can read this, I’m DWI”
Bombed in the U.S.A.!
