Boston Red Sox pitching prospect Drake Britton was arrested over the weekend for DUI, reckless driving and property damage- all misdemeanors.
At 4:42AM Saturday morning...
And what is it the HQ continually says about things happening after 1AM...???
He was released 8 hours later on $2,250 bond and is due in court on the 18th.
Michael Silverman of the Boston Herald got to look at the police report...
With the officer in pursuit, Britton, according to the report, swerved between vehicles, eventually driving off the road, over a curb, down a decline and then drove through and knocked down a fence. Britton attempted to drive into the woods before finally coming to a stop. The officer approached Britton and decided he did not pose a threat. When the officer asked for an ID, Britton turned over his Bank of America Visa card. Britton admitted to drinking and the officer observed slurred speech, bloodshot watery eyes and the strong odor of alcohol.
Britton was among three cuts from the major league roster on Monday after spending spring training with the big league club. The 2007 draft pick spent last year in double-A.
