Tiger Woods is facing some legal trouble.
Shortly after the legendary golfer was involved in a rollover car crash around 2 p.m. local time in Jupiter Island, Fla., March 27, he was arrested and charged with driving under the influence.
“Our DUI investigators came to the scene here, and Mr. Woods did exemplify signs of impairment,” Martin County Sheriff John Budensiek said in a press conference. “And when it was determined, he was placed under arrest and taken to the Martin County Jail.”
Budensiek explained that his team was not “suspicious of alcohol being involved in this case,” but alleged the golfer was impaired by some type of medication or other drug as he appeared “lethargic.”
“Mr. Woods did a breathalyzer test, blew triple zeros, but when it came time for us to ask for a urinalysis test, he refused,” the sheriff continued, “and so he’s been charged with DUI with property damage and refusal to submit to a lawful test.”
