We’re learning that Lamar Odom was arrested early Friday morning for a DUI.
According to TMZ:
The bust occurred in the San Fernando Valley at 3:54 AM. Lamar was popped by the California Highway Patrol and taken to a nearby station, where he was booked and is being held on $15,000 bail.
He was pulled over on the 101 Freeway for going too slow — 50 MPH. Lamar did not respond to cops, and drove 3 exits before finally coming to a stop. Law enforcement sources tell TMZ he showed obvious signs of intoxication. Lamar failed numerous field sobriety tests.
When Lamar was booked, we’re told he refused all chemical tests.
Lamar has been going through some tough times lately, as news of his drug problem hit the internet this week.
