Tiger Woods Arrested for DUI After Florida Crash

0:00On March 31st, Tiger Woods got hit with driving under the influence charges after crashing his land rover in Florida last Friday. The golf legend tried passing a truck at high speed, clipped it and rolled the vehicle. He pleaded not guilty in court on Tuesday, and posted a statement saying he's stepping away to get treatment and focus on his health. Earlier this week, the sheriff report came out with more details from the scene. Deputy Spawn hydrocodone pills in his pocket noted his bloodshot eyes, slow movements, and that he was sweating and hiccuping. A breath test showed no alcohol, but he refused the urine test and struggled on sobriety checks. Woods explained his limp came from multiple back and leg surgeries, including over 20 on his legs. No one was hurt in the crash, but the truck took about $5,000 in damage. This isn't his first wreck. He had a bad one back in February 2021 that messed up his leg and ankle bad. He's also facing charges for property damage and refusing a lawful test, which is now a misdemeanor in Florida, even for first timers.

1:02The report said his normal faculties seemed impaired, leading to the arrest before he posted bail hours later. He has an arraignment set for April 23rd, so we'll see how this plays out as he works on recovery and gets back to the game. That wraps global news today, brought to you with AI.
