Eminem's brother set to enter plea on drunken driving charge

SHELBY TOWNSHIP, Mich. — The younger brother of rapper Eminem has reached a plea agreement with prosecutors in a drunken driving case in Macomb County.

Twenty-three-year-old Nathan Mathers avoided a bench trial Thursday in district court in Shelby Township by agreeing to plead guilty to operating while impaired, second offence, at his Aug. 26 sentencing.

Police say the Clinton Township man failed to pull over for an ambulance before failing sobriety tests April 15 in Macomb Township. Police say his blood-alcohol level was 0.16, twice the legal limit.

Nathan Mathers, who raps as Nate Kane, is the brother of Marshall Mathers, better known as Eminem.

A message seeking comment was left Thursday for defence attorney Cecil St. Pierre.
