Per TMZ, on Wednesday, March 4, Britney Spears was arrested and taken into custody in Ventura County, California, for suspicion of DUI.

The pop star was arrested at 9:30 p.m. local time but was released in the early hours of March 5, per inmate records from the Ventura County Sheriff’s Department.

According to the outlet, early reports indicated her BAC measured approximately .06, which is below California’s legal limit for intoxicated driving.

The final confirmed test results have not been publicly released.
