FRESNO, Calif. (KFSN) -- A Simi Valley Uber driver is facing DUI charges after police said he was driving drunk on the clock after the Super Bowl.

An on-duty officer stopped Robert Wing Sunday night. That's when, police said, Wing told the officer he was on his way to pick up passengers. They said the Uber driver also revealed he had already driven two to three other fares in the city and was trying to make some extra cash after watching Super Bowl 50 at a local bar.

The officer conducted a DUI evaluation and found Wing had a blood alcohol level of .25.

Wing was arrested for DUI and booked into the Ventura County jail.
