Apparently "Celebrity Rehab" had little effect on Rodney King. He was pulled over and arrested on Tuesday in Riverside County on suspicion of drunk driving.

King is best known as the motorist victim of police brutality in 1991. The results of the case sparked the 1992 L.A. riots.

"A preliminary evaluation of the driver indicated he was possibly driving while impaired," Moreno Valey police said in a statement. "The subject was transported to the Moreno Valley Police Department for a further evaluation," police said, according to NBC LA.

Currently jailed as police investigate his case, King's bail is set at $2,500.
