The husband of US speaker of the house Nancy Pelosi was arrested for driving while intoxicated on the weekend.
CNN says the arrest appeared in a Napa County Criminal Justice Network public booking report.
According to the report, 82-year-old Paul Pelosi was taken into custody on Saturday night (local time) and charged with driving under the influence and driving with a blood alcohol content of 0.08% or higher.
CNN says both those charges are misdemeanours.
His bail has been set at US$5000.
"The Speaker will not be commenting on this private matter which occurred while she was on the East Coast," a statement from Nancy Pelosi's spokesperson said.
