He might be able to elude the most deadly enemies in his role as counter-terrorist expert Jack Bauer but Kiefer Sutherland, actor, is far less cunning.

He was apparently stopped at La Cienega and Beverly at 1:35 a.m. on Tuesday morning and was booked on DUI charges at LAPD's Hollywood station shortly after 4 a.m. According to a police spokesman, Sutherland failed a field sobriety test before being taken into custody. He was eventually released at around 5 a.m. on bail.

That's five episodes worth of, apparently, drunken action. Can't wait to see it on air.
