Santa Monica police Sgt. Thomas McLaughlin says Michaels was taken into custody Friday night. McLaughlin could provide no additional details.
Greg Hughes, a spokesman for NBC Sports, says the company "is aware of the situation" and has been in contact with Michaels. Hughes had no further comment.
A call Sunday by The Associated Press to Michaels' agent was not immediately returned.

oops is right...
Dang this stinks!
Saw it earlier on Drudge.
Michaels is one of my favorite announcers.
He’s a hardcore conservative. Just made a bad mistake.
Too bad it wasn’t Costas.
Pat Sumerall had big time problems with alcohol before he finally sobered up.
Let's show it from one end of the Internet to the other.
Why should the media protect one of their own?
Sports...is important...
Al Michaels is definitely one of the best if not the best sports announcer.
I agree. He’s an icon. Hope he’s able to get past this.
You’d think these celebs would be able to spring for a taxi?
LOL!
The difference between him and the rest of us is, he got caught doing his wrong thing.
I hope others are able to get past him DUI!
Speak for yourself.
He should have been arrested.
yes... if regular folk like me can spring for a taxi, celebs definitely can... hopefully he will learn from this and realize it's just not worth it to take a chance drinking and driving... and it's not even worth doing the designated driver thing... just take a cab... or get dropped off and picked up by a non-drinking pal... if he gets caught again, then he's really in trouble...
I think he’ll get past this.
Uhm did you read the article? He WAS arrested lol!
