(CNN) – David Cassidy is facing drunken driving charges after he was arrested in upstate New York early Wednesday morning.

The Partridge Family star was pulled over at a DWI checkpoint shortly after midnight for driving with his high beams on.

An officer smelled alcohol on his breath and administered a field sobriety test.

Cassidy allegedly had a .10 blood alcohol level and was arrested on the spot.

According to TMZ, the 70s teen heartthrob is charged with felony drunken driving because of a prior DUI in Florida.

Cassidy was released after posting $2500 bail.

He is due in court September 4.
