Another Arrest
For Rodney King



POMONA, Calif.

ames from America's news past keep coming back for more ink: Rodney King, whose videotaped police beating led to the 1992 Los Angeles riots, was arrested over the weekend on charges of driving while under the influence of a psychedelic drug.

King, 36, was detained early Saturday following a traffic stop. He showed symptoms of PCP intoxication, Lt. Darrell Cummings said.

King was released from jail after posting $2,500 bail. The arrest was King's third in six weeks, and the second by Pomona police in the past two weeks.

On Sept. 29, King was detained for allegedly being under the influence of PCP and exposing himself. Last month, he pleaded not guilty to another charge of being under the influence of the psychedelic drug, which stemmed from an Aug. 28 arrest at a hotel.

King has twice spent 90 days in jail for convictions in the past few years.The videotaped beating led to riots when four officers were acquitted. Two officers were convicted of violating King's civil rights, and he won a $3.8 million settlement from Los Angeles.
