Singer Doug Supernaw, 44, was arrested Sunday (March 6) in Bryan, Texas, and charged with public intoxication and fleeing from an officer. According to The Bryan-College Station Eagle, the arrest came after Supernaw allegedly yelled obscenities and made obscene gestures while walking near an apartment complex. An off-duty police officer identified himself as he approached the singer and instructed Supernaw to sit on the curb while awaiting the arrival of another officer to arrest him on the intoxication charge. Before the patrol car arrived, Supernaw began walking away and then started running when the officer told him to stop. Supernaw, who hit No. 1 in 1993 with "I Don't Call Him Daddy," is already scheduled to go to trial March 31 in Brenham, Texas, on a felony charge of assault on a peace officer following an altercation at a bar in 2002.
