· Telemundo McAllen (KTLM)
Pop star Britney Spears has been accused of driving under the influence of alcohol or drugs (DUI) after being stopped by California Highway Patrol (CHP) officers last month on a Southern California freeway. Spears' arraignment hearing was scheduled for Monday morning at the Ventura County Superior Court. She is not required to attend as the charge is considered a misdemeanor. Spears, 44, was arrested on March 4 in the Westlake Village community near the border of Los Angeles and Ventura counties, northwest of Los Angeles. Authorities told NBC4 Investigates that another driver reported someone driving erratically in the Newbury Park area and called 911.
