But the off-spring of The Goracle proved me wrong. Al Gore’s son (Al Gore the 3rd) was picked up for speeding in a Toyota Prius…. Oh… and was inebriated too. A.G. the 3rd was allegedly drunk and in possession of other illegal substances.
Of course, this type of arrest isn’t foreign to the 3rd .
Al Gore III, son of the former vice president, was arrested in California early Wednesday morning for suspicion of possessing marijuana and prescription drugs.
Gore III was allegedly driving a blue Toyota Prius at speeds over 100 mph when he was pulled over around 2:15 a.m. on the San Diego freeway south of Los Angeles. Smelling marijuana, police searched the car and found less than one ounce of marijuana and prescription drugs Xanax, Valium, Vicodin and Adderall, Orange County Sheriff’s Department spokesman Jim Armormino said. The last pharmaceutical is a treatment for attention deficit disorder.
“He does not have a prescription for any of those drugs,” Amormino said.
Gore, 24, was released from a men’s jail in Santa Ana after posting $20,000 bail.
This is the second time he was arrested on a marijuana possession charge. Police in Montgomery County, Md., pulled over Gore in December 2003 and noticed the smell of pot. Police were also tipped off by the open windows and sunroof despite the freezing temperature.
