Sheesh, when will y’all learn. But yet another celeb has been popped for a DUI, this time 24’s Kiefer Sutherland. And, as you may recall, Kiefer has a previous drunk driving conviction, which means if he gets convicted on this one too, he will have to serve at least five days in jail minimum. Nothing like some jail time to put yet another crimp in the already controversial new 24 season!

TMZ, of course, has all the nitty gritty.

MZ has learned that “24″ star Kiefer Sutherland was busted on suspicion of DUI in West Hollywood last night, after allegedly blowing more than twice the legal limit of .08. This is the actor’s second DUI in the past five years — he was arrested in 2004. By California law, if he’s convicted, he must serve a mandatory minimum of five days in jail.

Police sources tell TMZ 40-year-old Sutherland was pulled over around 1:35 AM PST on the corner of La Cienega and Beverly. Sutherland was at the FOX Fall Eco-Casino party at Area nightclub earlier that evening. The photo in this story was taken at the event.

Sutherland, who was stopped after making an illegal U-turn, was arrested for misdemeanor DUI and transported to the Hollywood Police station. He was booked at 4:09 AM and released at 5:42 AM on $25,000 bail.

So I wonder how the Fox bosses are appreciating this little bit of 24 publicity! And he is joining a long line of Hollywood celeb’s who have been popped for a DUI lately.
