Singer Bobby Brown has been arrested on suspicion of driving under the influence, according to TMZ.

Law enforcement sources tell TMZ that Brown was pulled over in Los Angeles on Monday in the early afternoon.

According to the California Highway Patrol, the incident occurred near the corner of Victory Boulevard and Wilbur Avenue. Officers pulled him over for talking on his cell phone, but then administered a field sobriety test.

Reports say the 43-year-old singer is in custody in Van Nuys jail. It’s unclear what substance cops believe Brown had been using before he got behind the wheel.

Brown has a previous DUI conviction stemming from an arrest in Georgia in 1996. He eventually pled guilty and served 8 days in jail.
