Kiefer Sutherland Is Charged With DUI
September 28, 2007
LOS ANGELES – The Los Angeles city attorney’s office says it has filed misdemeanor DUI charges against Kiefer Sutherland.
City attorney spokesman Nick Velasquez said the star of the TV drama “24″ was charged Friday with one count each of driving under the influence and driving with a blood-alcohol level of .08 or above.
If convicted, he faces up to a year in jail. He is on probation for a similar 2004 conviction, which could add as much as six months to his sentence.
The 40-year-old actor was pulled over Tuesday after leaving a Hollywood party at the trendy Area nightclub.
