AceShowbiz - Sean "P. Diddy" Combs' son Justin Combs has been charged in his DUI case. The 29-year-old was hit with two misdemeanor counts for driving under the influence and for having a blood alcohol content (BAC) higher than 0.08 percent or more.
RadarOnline.com reported that a criminal case was filed against Justin on June 27. His pretrial hearing date reportedly has been set for August 10.
Justin was arrested for driving under the influence on June 4. He was taken into custody after running a red light near Beverly Hills at around 8:00 A.M. Officers found Justin behind the wheel after he was stopped. He had his car searched, and police observed a smell of alcohol coming out of the car.
"Officers conducted a traffic stop, and they observed the driver possibly under the influence of unknown alcohol or drugs," the Los Angeles Police Department told Fox News. "The investigation revealed that he was under the influence."
The LAPD also noted that Justin "was put through a sobriety test that he failed." He was charged with misdemeanor DUI with his bail set at $5,000 before he was released on his own recognizance.
In the wake of his arrest, Justin's mom Misa Hylton seemingly insinuated that the incident was the result of Diddy's bad influence. "I'm not Protecting no one anymore, Just my Son," she wrote on Instagram Story hours after the news of the arrest made media headlines.
"The statement 'a fish rots from the head down' means that, in addition to being a major contributing factor [sic] in a family or organization's success, leadership is also the root of cause of its failure and demise," she added. "The Truth shall set you free."
