Atlanta Falcons Star Arrested For DUI
The Atlanta Falcons may have won in their NFL week 2 match up against the Denver Broncos last night, but a member of their victorious team is definitely losing right now after he was arrested for gettin his slizzard swerve on following the game.
via Yahoo Sports:
Atlanta Falcons running back Michael Turner was jailed on charges of drunken driving and speeding early Tuesday, just hours after he scored a touchdown in the team’s win over the Denver Broncos.
Turner, 30, of Suwanee, Ga., was booked into the Gwinnett County jail in metro Atlanta just after 5 a.m. Turner spent barely two hours behind bars before he was released on $2,179 bond, jail records showed.
The arresting officer said Turner reeked of alcohol and was doing 97 in a 65. The Falcons later released this statememt regarding the incident:
”We are aware of the situation involving Michael and are in the process of gathering more information. Because this is now a legal matter, the club will have no further comment at this time.”
Don’t these guys know that all eyes are on them after winning a game? Gotta do better.
