Al Michaels Charged With Two Counts Of DUI

Al Michaels may spend some time behind bars after he was charged with two counts of misdemeanor DUI connection with his arrest in Santa Monica, CA back in April.

According to TMZ, if Michaels is convicted on the charges, he faces up to 6 months in jail and a $1,000 fine, but due to him only having this on his record, it's most likely he'll NEVER have to spend a day in jail.

Law enforcement sources say that Michaels passed a DUI checkpoint in Santa Monica around 10:00 PM on Friday (April 19). Officers say they detected the odor of alcohol. Michaels was then pulled over and was given a field sobriety test and after performing badly, he was placed under arrest. 

Hours later (on April 20) at around 4:00 AM, Michaels was released from jail.

Michael's blood alcohol level was right at the legal limit [blowing a .08 and a .09 in two breathalyzer test].
