On suspicion of driving under the influence

WOODLAND HILLS, Calif.—Rapper Krayzie Bone was arrested today on suspicion of driving under the influence in Woodland Hills, the Los Angeles Police Department reported.

The 39-year-old rapper, whose real name is Anthony Henderson, was arrested about 12:30 a.m. on Topanga Canyon Boulevard, near the Ventura (101) Freeway, said Los Angeles police Officer Rosario Herrera of the Media Relations office.

Henderson was booked for driving under the influence of alcohol and/or drugs, Herrera said. He was held on $5,000 bail, according to the sheriff's department.

The celebrity news web site TMZ.com reported that the rapper "was asked to perform field sobriety tests and didn't do too well,'' and his blood-alcohol level was measured .10 percent, exceeding the .08 percent legal limit in California.
