BURBANK, Calif., Oct. 17 (UPI) -- Disney Channel star Mitchel Musso was arrested for allegedly driving drunk in Burbank, Calif., law-enforcement sources told TMZ Monday.

Musso, 20, is known for his work on kid-friendly shows such as "Hannah Montana," "Phineas and Ferb," "Pair of Kings" and "PrankStars."

Police pulled the actor over in his 2007 black Mercedes Benz Sunday after he failed to slow down for officers directing traffic for an unrelated accident, TMZ reported.

The officers said they detected a "strong odor of alcohol" and gave Musso a field sobriety test, which he failed, the celebrity news Web site said.

He was being held on $5,000 bail.
