| Article details former "Three's Company" star Joyce DeWitt's recent run-in with the law. |
A former lovable sit-com sweetheart is in trouble with the law, unfortunately. While the rest of the country was celebrating America's birthday July 4, former "Three's Company" star Joyce DeWitt was busy getting busted for DUI in El Segundo, Calif. For anyone who saw Joyce in the recent New Theatre show "Hats!" or just always liked her from "Three's Company," you're now (I imagine) reeling from the continuing oddity of stars on the skids joining the DUI "drive of shame".
Police Sgt. Dean Howard told E! News that "an officer saw DeWitt drive a vehicle past a barricade intended to control vehicular traffic near a park. As the officer spoke with DeWitt, he observed signs and symptoms of alcohol intoxication."
DeWitt, 60, was arrested at about 4:30 p.m. after failing field sobriety tests.
