Actor Will Patton charged with DUI

When someone gets a San Diego DUI, it is usually not plastered on the
news unless someone has been harmed. However, as soon as a celebrity obtains a San Diego DUI, everyone hears about it. Well, another celebrity has obtained a DUI this
month. Actor Will Patton (who has been in some great movies) got in trouble.

What does this mean
to me?

Just remember that anyone can get a San Diego DUI, whether you are a
celebrity or not. So, although everyone makes mistakes, try to plan ahead and
arrange for a designated driver, or get a taxi, rather than risking your life,
money, or other’s lives.


Actor Will Patton, of the movies “Remember the Titans” and “Armageddon” and the current TNT series “Falling Skies,” has been charged with driving under the influence in his native South Carolina.

Court records show that the 60-year-old Patton was stopped on the Isle of Palms on Tuesday night.

He was charged with first offense driving under the influence with a blood alcohol content of less than 0.10. The legal limit for driving is 0.08.

Court documents show he was released Wednesday on a $997 personal recognizance bond. Patton is a native of nearby Charleston.

Isle of Palms police said an incident report would be available later Thursday.

The Associated Press left a message with Patton’s agent seeking comment.
