A booking report shows Paul Pelosi, 82, was arrested at 11:44 p.m. PT Saturday, booked at 4 a.m.
Pelosi was charged with misdemeanors for allegedly driving with a blood alcohol content of 0.08% or higher. Bail was set at $5,000.
Nancy Pelosi was not in California at the time of her husband’s arrest. She was in Providence, Rhode Island, where she received an honorary degree from Brown University and delivered the commencement address to the graduating class.
The former venture capitalist has been married to the House Speaker since 1963, and the couple has five children together. They split their time between Washington, DC, and San Francisco, close to where he was arrested.
“The Speaker will not be commenting on this private matter which occurred while she was on the East Coast,” Drew Hammill, spokesperson for the House speaker told USA TODAY.
