It all began when the star was in his 2012 Jeep at the Drive-Thru in hopes of getting an early morning meal.

Michael allegedly hit the car in front of them as they both waited in line.

Police were called to the restaurant and noticed the radio favorite had ‘bloodshot eyes, slurred speech, reeked of alcohol and he stumbled when he got out of the car.’

Ray then reportedly failed a series of sobriety tests and was arrested for DUI. He admitted he had just left a bar.

When they were searching the country notable, police found weed oil on him.

TMZ claimed he told police that his foot slipped off the break and that is why he hit the car in front of him. 

The site added that the Think A Little Less songwriter is expected to be released from jail ‘shortly.’
