As TMZ first reported, Paulk, now 28, was picked up by Maricopa County Sheriff's deputies after he was pulled over in Scottsdale, Ariz., for allegedly driving too close to emergency vehicles. He reportedly failed a field sobriety test and confessed to drinking and smoking pot. TMZ also reports, and Us confirms, that the actor blew a .109 on a breathalyzer.
