‘Pioneer Woman’ Ree Drummondher cousin, Caleb, was arrested for DUI just over a month after he was involved in a narrow wreck that could claim his life … TMZ learned.
According to arrest reports from Osage County, OK … the 21-year-old was booked for DUI early Saturday morning. No word on whether he’s still in custody at this point, but Caleb shot for this trophy on his way inside … there’s no doubt it’s Ree’s flesh and blood.
The exact circumstances of his arrest were not disclosed, but there are other charges on which he was shot … including transporting an open container (beer) and carrying firearms while under the influence.
Caleb’s arrest comes a little over a month after he and his uncle – Ree’s husband, Ladd – head-first collision in two different fire trucks they were busy respectively. The family was battling a raging fire on their Oklahoma farm when the two rigs crashed.
We were told at the time that Caleb was not wearing a seat belt … and he was thrown about 70 feet from the vehicle. He and his uncle were both admitted to the hospital but were eventually released and it appears they were recovering.

Ree himself gave an encouraging update on March 15, saying that they were injured, but “repaired” in a update work on her famous blog. She also posted photos of the lighthouses in question – which are older than modern trucks, VAT – and it looks like the impact was huge.
We reached the Osage County Sheriff’s Office for more details on Caleb’s alleged DUI … so far, no word back.
