I always thought it was glue, but it appears to be BOOZE that’s making the host of ABC’s Extreme Makeover: Home Edition so nuts!
According to People, the L.A. police have confirmed that Ty Pennington was arrested this weekend for allegedly driving drunk:
Pennington, 42, was arrested at 12:35 a.m. Saturday by West Los Angeles traffic officers. He was booked at the county jail on a misdemeanor and released at 2:50 a.m. on $5,000 bail. A court date was set for June 4.
Pennington released the following statement regarding his faux pas:
“I made an error in judgment. We all make mistakes; however, this is about accountability. Under no circumstances should anyone consume alcohol while driving. I could have jeopardized the lives of others and I am grateful there was no accident or harm done to anyone. This was my wake-up call. I also want to apologize to my fans, ABC Television and my design team for my lapse in judgment and the embarrassment I have caused.”
Haven’t they had a few families on the show that have lost someone from drunk driving? Whoops!
