'Sopranos' star Joseph Gannascoli arrested on DUI charges




Joseph Gannascoli, the actor who played Vito Spatafore on the HBO hit series "The Sopranos," has been arrested on a DUI charge in Tampa.

Smelling alcohol on the actor's breath and observing his watery, bloodshoot eyes and slurred speech, the officer issued a field sobriety test, which Gannascoli failed. The actor also blew a .111 on a Breathalyzer, well above Florida's legal limit of .08.

Gannascoli was then arrested for suspicion of driving under the influence. He has posted $500 bond and is expected to be released from Hillsborough County jail later Friday.
