Prosecutors dismissed the two most serious criminal charges filed last year against the rock icon Bruce Springsteen â drunken driving and reckless driving â during a brief hearing Wednesday in federal court in New Jersey.
Springsteen, 71, pleaded guilty to the least serious of the three charges he was facing, drinking alcohol in a closed area, where it was barred. He was fined $540.
âTwo small shots of tequila,â Springsteen said as his lawyer, Mitchell Ansell, led him through his guilty plea during the hearing, which was conducted over a videoconferencing app.
