Los Angeles (CNN) -- Rodney King, whose videotaped beating by police ultimately led to the 1992 Los Angeles riots, was arrested on suspicion of driving under the influence on Tuesday, police said.
King was behind the wheel of a 1994 Mitsubishi when he was pulled over in Moreno Valley, in Southern California's Riverside County, the city's police department reported. Officers saw King -- who has acknowledged a longstanding drinking problem -- commit "several traffic violations," a police statement said.
How much would you like to bet the police officer who pulled his license said a few choice words upon realizing who he had just pulled over?
That is all.

Rodney King being arrested for DUI is like saying that the Sun rose in the east. But unlike ordinary mortals, he'll keep on getting off until he kills someone, then it'll be the LAPD's fault.
Heh.....
I wonder if LAPD has King flagged in the system so that whenever an officer runs his license a shift supervisor is automatically dispatched.
BGM
He must have the millions of bucks he got as a settlement wisely invested, hence saving money driving an old beater.
