LAS VEGAS (AP) -- Dennis Rodman was charged with driving under the influence of alcohol after he crashed a motorcycle while doing stunts outside a strip club, police said.

Rodman, who was treated Sunday for cuts on his legs, was not jailed on the misdemeanor charge. He was issued a summons to appear in court for an arraignment in three to five weeks, police said.

``He borrowed an employee's motorcycle and was attempting to pop wheelies when he hit a pole,'' police spokesman Jose Montoya said Monday.

Last month, the 42-year-old former rebounding champion was charged with being drunk in public in Newport Beach, Calif., where police say they have answered scores of complaints about noise at his home.

Rodman is a regular visitor to Las Vegas, where he reached a settlement this year with the last of four women who accused him of fondling them at a hotel-casino in 1998.

He last played in the NBA in 2000 with Dallas

When will he announce his campaign for California Governor?

I never thought about it, but I tend to think that drunks may as well be allowed to ride motorcycles. If they get into a collision, for once they would be the only ones getting killed.

Maybe he's the entry of the National Safety Council in the Cannonball.

Gee, I wonder why the Nuggets didn't really want to let him try out for the team. He'd be a great mentor to the young'uns
