Mel Gibson’s son Christian is apparently a chip off the old block – he, too, has been busted for drunken driving.Two and a half weeks after his father copped a plea in California for driving under the influence, the latest Star magazine reports Gibson’s 24-year-old son was arrested last year.Budding actor Christian Gibson, one of seven children of Mel and his wife, Robyn, was a student at the University of Colorado when he was pulled over by a cop in Boulder.A police report said the younger Gibson was spotted Feb. 7, 2005, at 1:55 a.m. making an illegal turn in his Chevy Blazer.The officer said a strong smell of alcohol came from the SUV, which was also carrying four passengers."I saw Gibson had red, watery eyes and slow, slurred speech," the officer said in his report. "I asked Gibson to step out of the vehicle and walk on the sidewalk."The cop said the "Braveheart" actor’s son offered to perform "voluntary roadside maneuvers," including placing a finger to his nose and walking a straight line.Allegedly unable to deliver on those promises, Gibson was promptly arrested. Cops searching his Blazer also found several shotgun casings, which Gibson said were left from a "hunting vacation."Gibson, who had a starring role in the 2004 flick "Billy’s Day Out," spent five hours in the Boulder County Jail. He later underwent residential substance abuse treatment at the expensive Cirque Lodge in Sundance, Utah.
