More bad news for “Dancing with the Stars” alum Victor Ortiz — the boxer was charged with 2 misdemeanor counts of DUI stemming from his Sept. arrest … and officials say the guy was super drunk.

TMZ Sports broke the story … Ortiz was arrested on Sept. 24th in Ventura County, CA around 7 PM when cops pulled over his BMW and smelled booze. 

Now, officials say Ortiz’s BAC was MORE than .15 … which is a huge deal because in California, that triggers a “special allegation” which carries a tougher penalty if convicted … more jail, higher fines, etc. 

Here’s the real problem for Ortiz — he’s already on probation stemming from a 2015 battery case at a Kenny Chesney concert at the Rose Bowl.

If Ortiz’s probation is revoked because of the DUI — the judge could have him locked up. 

Stay tuned …
