Paul Pelosi was taken into custody late Saturday in Napa County north of San Francisco, according to a sheriff’s office online booking report.
He could face charges including driving under the influence and driving with a blood alcohol content level of 0.08 or higher, the report said.
Pelosi’s bail was set for $5,000 for the two misdemeanors, records showed.
No other details were immediately available. California Highway Patrol Officer Andrew Barclay said more information would be released later Sunday.
Drew Hammill, spokesperson for Nancy Pelosi, told The Associated Press: “The Speaker will not be commenting on this private matter which occurred while she was on the East Coast.”
The House speaker was in Providence, Rhode Island, on Sunday, where she delivered the commencement address at Brown University.
Pelosi’s arrest was first reported by TMZ.
Paul and Nancy Pelosi have been married since 1963.
I would also be an alcoholic if I was married to Nancy Pelosi
I feel bad for the officer whose life has been ruin for being an honest cop by going against the most powerful family of the planet
Nobody gets arrested on a “suspicion”
Why can’t you write. He was arrested for dwi? As you wrote in the article “ he had a blood alcohol content level of 0.08 or higher”
Drunk drivers are responsible for over 10,000 deaths a year. Perhaps Pelosi should focus on that instead of taking guns from law abiding citizens.
I hope this doesn’t distract nancy from cleaning up the slums of her own backyard of San Fracisco
Hope she will join him
The real crime here is have to pay exorbitant tuition at Brown and then have to here this witch speak at graduation.
Can’t you get a story straight he crashed while drunk no article says suspicion but here
People do what people do.
They both hit the bottle…
Now I understand the defund the police movement.
Why is this newsworthy? Just as Donald Trump shouldn’t be held responsible for the extramarital and business shenanigans of his eldest son, why should the drinking habits of her husband cause you to be so focused on Nancy Pelosi? Gentlemen – enough with the agendas. There should be one standard for all – even if they happen to be Democrats.
Eighty-two seems too old to drive.
