Former Partridge Family star David Cassidy was released from a Florida jail early Thursday, after he was charged with DUI, failure to maintain a single lane , and having an open container of alcohol in his car on Wednesday night, RadarOnline.com has learned.

Cassidy, 60, was apprehended by Florida Highway Patrol officers on Florida's Turnpike around 8:00 pm ET, the Palm Beach Post reported, after he admitted to officers he'd had a glass of wine earlier in the day and a painkiller (hydrocodone) at about 3:30 pm ET, five hours before he was taken into custody.
