LOS ANGELES (October 24, 2012)--Bobby Brown was arrested Wednesday on suspicion of drunken driving for the second time this year.

Los Angeles police spokeswoman Venus Hall said the singer's car was stopped in the Topanga area at around 1 a.m. Wednesday.

Police said he was booked on suspicion of driving under the influence at the Van Nuys jail but was later released.

A representative for Brown could not immediately be contacted.

Brown, 43, pleaded no contest to DUI earlier this year following a March arrest in Los Angeles. Under a plea agreement, Brown checked himself into a rehabilitation center in August.

Brown's first album in 14 years came out this summer.
