EXCLUSIVE: Mel Gibson Busted for DUI

Posted Jul 28th 2006 3:00PM by TMZ Staff
Filed under: Celebrity Justice

Mel Gibson was arrested by the Los Angeles County Sheriff's Department in Malibu, Calif. early this morning for suspicion of DUI. Bail was set at $5,000.

He was pulled over on the Pacific Coast Highway and a Breathalyzer test was administered. The arrest report lists the time of arrest as 2:36AM and the time booked as 4:06AM.

A spokesman for the Los Angeles Country Sheriff's Department told TMZ, "Mel Gibson was arrested for suspicion of driving under the influence. He was released later this morning. The investigation was still ongoing, just like it would be with any other person."

Calls to Gibson's rep were not immediately returned.

A devout Catholic, Gibson shot the film depicting the last 12 hours in the life of Jesus Christ in Aramaic and Latin. It took more than $600m (£337.5m) worldwide

His new film Apocalypto is set 3,000 years ago in central America and features dialogue spoken in an obscure Mayan dialect.

Gibson is also known for several other works, including the Lethal Weapon and Mad Max series of films in which he starred.

Seeing Lopez at NROland trying to square this with her "Mel Gibson: Feminist" column a couple of years back was pretty damn funny.

― Ned Raggett (Ned), Sunday, 30 July 2006 15:19 (twenty years ago)

Ther'es more, much more.

"Gibson blurted out a barrage of anti-semitic remarks about 'fucking Jews'. Gibson yelled out: 'The Jews are responsible for all the wars in the world.' Gibson then asked: 'Are you a Jew?'"

The incident gained further attention when it was alleged that the LA police department had tried to cover up Gibson's offensive remarks.

― xX_420_GoKu_ChRiStWaRrIoR_Xx (Princess TamTam), Thursday, 16 December 2010 18:27 (fifteen years ago)

my point was that he's still making movies that cost tens of millions of dollars, instead of starring in Mansquito on the sci-fi channel

like this is a major studio release, from Academy Award Winners, with a big budget and advertising and a "serious family movie" vibe. he shouldn't even be let on a fucking studio lot imho.

― from the lowly milligeir to the mighty gigahongro (Shakey Mo Collier), Thursday, 16 December 2010 18:29 (fifteen years ago)

He was already making the movie when the tapes came out if I recall correctly. The real test will be how long until he makes another one.

Actor-director Mel Gibson avoided the prying cameras of the paparazzi by going to the El Segundo Police Department at night to be fingerprinted and booked in connection with his misdemeanor battery conviction.

Gibson arrived at the station about 9:30 p.m. Wednesday and was released a half-hour later.

A booking record lists Gibson as 5-feet-10 and 190 pounds.

His fingerprinting was required after he pleaded no contest Friday to the misdemeanor, related to a struggle last year with his former girlfriend, Oksana Grigorieva.

He was sentenced to three years of probation.

Gibson was ordered to complete a one-year domestic-violence counseling program and separate mental health counseling.

The Cannes Film Festival premiere of the Jodie Foster-directed The Beaver just ended, and I'm told that there was a 10-minute standing ovation for the film and its star, Mel Gibson. Gibson missed the press conference earlier today but flew in just in time to support Foster and the film at the premiere. At that press conference, Foster said she made the film with a European sensibility and expected the crowd to be receptive. The film hasn't performed well in the U.S.

'get the gringo' is a surprisingly solid flick, but probs only of interest to me and hungry4ass and veggiegirl and dayo. way too sentimental to be as great as it could have been, and it's begging for a version minus the voiceover narration, but it's entertaining and gibson is in prime asshole form. his role is kinda equal parts 'payback' and 'lethal weapon'.
