{{#rendered}} {{/rendered}}Singer Don McLean was arrested on a misdemeanor domestic violence charge Monday in Maine.
Camden's Chief Randy Gagne told FOX411 police responded to a call at McLean's Camden, Maine residence early Monday morning and arrested the singer without incident.
He was transported to Knox County Jail in Rockland, Maine, and was later released after on bail.

The 70-year-old still performs occasionally, most recently in August at the Maine Lobster Festival.

In 2013, McLean was fined $400 for driving his Chrysler too fast through a Maine school zone. McLean's attorney argued the school zone warning lights requiring a 15 mph limit were not flashing; police said they were on.
The attorney who represented McLean during his traffic case did not immediately return a phone message.

McLean is married to his wife Patrisha and the couple share two children.
