City prosecutors filed misdemeanor charges Friday against Eve stemming from a traffic accident in Hollywood last week. The rapper-actress (real name: Jihan Jeffers) was charged with driving under the influence, driving with a blood-alcohol level of .08 or above, and failure to provide proof of insurance, said Frank Mateljan, a spokesman for the city attorney’s office. The charges stem from an April 26 arrest in which officers stopped Eve at 2:40 a.m. after her car struck a raised concrete center median on Hollywood Boulevard. A breath test showed her blood-alcohol level was above the legal limit, Mateljan said. Eve, 28, is scheduled to be arraigned May 17. She faces a maximum penalty of six months in jail and a $1,000 fine. More : abcnews.go.com |
