Arrest Warrant out for Speezer

Post by Fan_In_NY »

Hmmm, this was in December, I wonder if Cardinals brass expected this...
IRVINE, Calif. -- An arrest warrant has been issued by the Irvine Police Department for Scott Spiezio of the St. Louis Cardinals on six charges stemming from a Dec. 30 incident.

The warrant for the utility player alleges driving under influence, driving under the influence with a blood alcohol content of .08 percent or more, hit and run, aggravated assault, assault and battery.

Possibly - although presumably Ryan would be able to back up both 2B, SS, and 3B. Barden does have more power, though.

Poor Speez.

Sounds like the warrant was just issued, even though the incident happened about 2 months ago.

He's wanted for these infractions in this order? I'm trying to piece this incident together.

So Spezio is driving drunk and hits a car parked on the side of the road. A cop sees, pulls him over and Speezer jumps out of his car. He is so pissed that he notices a pedestrian, runs over to him, threatens him, and then proceeds to beat the crap out of him.

it seems like incidents like these don't really stay out of the news until a warrant comes out. Someone usually squawks about it as soon as it happens.
