Colin Stough, the 20-year-old “American Idol” fan-favorite, has been arrested for alleged drunk driving in Tennessee after a automotive crash, TMZ has realized.

Authorities inform us … Colin was taken into custody early Friday after freeway patrol responded to a single-vehicle crash on I-840 East close to the 37-mile marker in Williamson County, which is simply exterior of Nashville.

Colin was arrested and charged with DUI, underage consumption of alcohol, and failure to train due care, TMZ is advised. It was not clear if he suffered any accidents within the crash, however he was taken to the hospital and cleared earlier than he was booked. He has since bailed out.

Idol followers keep in mind Colin from season 21 when he positioned third behind winner Iam Tongi and runner-up Megan Danielle again in 2023.

Simply 18 when he auditioned for “American Idol” … Colin blew away judges Lionel Richie, Katy Perry, and Luke Bryan when he auditioned with Lynyrd Skynyrd’s “Easy Man.”
