George Michael was arrested on suspicion of possessing marijuana after police found him slumped over the steering wheel of his car in London, authorities said. Police had earlier warned Michael for possession of cannabis in February.
Michael was arrested after police responded to complaints that a car was blocking an intersection in North London at 3:22 a.m. Sunday. He received a caution for possession of cannabis and was released on bail on a charge of being unfit to drive. He has a November court date.
Just a week earlier, Michael gave his first solo concert in 15 years. The Spain show kicked off his new tour, “25 Live,” which will visit 28 European cities this fall.
In April, he hit three parked cars. He later acknowledged in an interview that he was a “terrible driver” and said he was trying to maneuver out of a parking spot.
