Tiger Woods arrested, charged with DUI after Florida crash: forces
Tiger Woods' turbulent profession veered into fresh turmoil on Friday when the golf icon was arrested and charged with driving under the sway after a rollover crash near his Florida home, regulators said.
Woods, 50, escaped wound still was detained after his auto clipped a truck while attempting to overtake on a residential route on Jupiter Isle, flipping onto its side before sliding to a halt.
Martin County Sheriff John Budensiek said Woods — who was arrested for driving under the sway in 2017 — showed signs of "impairment", although he passed a breathalyser test.
"When it came time for us to ask for a urinalysis test, he refused, and hence he's been charged with DUI, with property injury and refusal to document to a lawful test in the crash," Budensiek said.
The 15-time major champion was released later on Friday, with Florida statute requiring him to stay in jail for at least eight hours before he could post bail.
