Mischa Barton Busted for DUI

Posted Dec 27th 2007 11:51AM by Celly

TMZ has confirmed that Mischa Barton has been arrested on suspicion of DUI, possession of marijuana and a controlled substance and driving without a valid license.

According to a press release issued by the L.A. County Sheriff's Department, the former "O.C." star was pulled over early this morning around 2:45 AM as she was driving in West Hollywood, Calif. Cops say she "was seen straddling two lanes of traffic and failed to signal when making a turn." When deputies pulled her over, they determined that she "was an unlicensed driver and was driving while under the influence of an alcoholic beverage."

Barton is still in custody, being held on $10,000 bail. The L.A. County Sheriffs' Inmate Information website called her "Mischa Burton." Sources tell us that Mischa has been "very cooperative" and "no trouble at all." She's a good bad girl!

The arrest was first reported by Hollyscoop.com.

67. I'm not surprised. Dumb bitc* has been caught smoking weed behind the wheel on several occasions. Finally the cops did their job. Keds is definitely going to drop her as their spokesperson. Her career is over. Her parents shouldn't bail her out. Let her stay in jail for a while.

69. Why is she still being held on a mere $10,000 bail - don't these chicks carry that much in their freaking glove compartments?

OR is she broke?

74. I guess she has four movies waiting release so this is an excellent publicity move on her part.

75. She has a film out in UK at the moment directed by Richard Attenborough called Closing The Ring and he has nothing but good things to say about her so I guess this film must be due out in US shortly. It appears any publicity is good publicity
