Sambora Could Be Charged with Endangering Kid

Posted Mar 26th 2008 5:00PM by TMZ Staff

Richie Sambora could be criminally charged with child endangerment.

Richie Sambora was busted for DUI with his 10-year-old daughter Ava in the car, along with another juvenile and another adult -- a woman. If Sambora was driving drunk, he could be charged with endangering the two kids.

Police sources tell us Sambora has not been charged with endangerment but the Laguna Beach P.D. is "actively investigating."

And, police sources say, after Sambora was busted, the cops called Heather Locklear, Ava's mom. We're told Heather authorized the woman in the car to drive her daughter home.

17. Anyone know who the woman in the car was? Is he cheating on Denise? I hate to say it but I hope he is. Denise is a horrible person and as bad a parent as Lynne Spears for whoring out her children on a reality show because she is a loser and can't make money on her own.

21. OK, the facts are his 10 year old daughter was in the car, he was drunk, there was another female adult and child in the car. Was this a visit he had with his daughter, if it was Heather should even be mentioned. Second Heather can't control that twit. Stop judging freaishly perfect people. Yes he should be charged and any body else would be.

28. Let's see how money and fame can buy Richie out of this mess....
Its one thing to drive drunk and endanger yourself and innocent people on the road. But to do it knowingly with children in the car? Shame on your Richie. Time to cancel the tour and get this guy some help!!!!!
Oh, and I just love how people who profess their love to this guy, can't even spell his name right!!!!!!!

30. IDIOT! I am so disappointed with him. To put his daughter and another child at risk is terrible. Not to mention, putting everyone else in danger by him being on the road driving and drinking. Why didn't this woman stop this? Was she drunk too? Stupidity. These celebrities are straight up losers. They can afford to hire drivers or rent a frickin' cab for a ride home. Call a buddy. But to drive with children in the car? Endangering yourself, the kids, the passengers, and ALL OF US THE DRIVE BESIDE YOU COMPLETE IDIOTS AND OUR CHILDREN WHO DRIVE AND WALK AND BIKE THE ROADWAYS? Ugghh...I'm exhausted from these idiots....I hope they punish him properly. No posh rehab this time.
