Mike & Mike just said that TLR was arrested at midnight last night for driving while intoxicated. Apparently he was stopped at a light for a few cycles, they had to wake him up by knocking on his window, conducted field sobriety tests and got probable cause to arrest him.
Wow...
EDIT: The Post-Dispatch has the story now. Here's the link

They are reporting it on Fox 2 in St. Louis now, but I can't find it anywhere else.

I tried your link and couldn't get it to work. If it doesn't work for anyone else, try this one:

Thanks.
There was video of the newscast and now there isn't.
I'm wondering if they jumped the gun since no one else is running it.
Fox Sports has nothing. Yahoo Sports has nothing.

Not being reported too widely yet, but it looks like it happened. According to those sources he blew a .093, just over the legal limit in Florida of .08.

When Mike and Mike first started talking about this, I thought they were going to tell us he had a heart attack while trying to drive.

That is crazy!
He's a guy I would never thought would do something like that. It'll be interesting to see what the club has to say about this.

Yeah, they were reading a text release direct from the Jupiter Police.
Didn't know you would be able to find his mug shot already. I don't think it's necessarily a good thing that he was just over the limit, because he was still over the limit. But at least it wasn't double or triple the limit...
The mug shot link says this is his first offense--is that true just for Jupiter? Does anyone know if TLR has been stopped for this previously? I've never heard of anything like it relating to TLR.
