Atlanta Braves starting pitcher Derek Lowe was arrested Thursday night and charged with DUI, making an improper lane change and reckless driving. Here’s the police cam video of the arrest:
Lowe was taken to the Atlanta city jail, posed for the mugshot shown here and later released after posting his $2,944 bail.
According to the Atlanta police report, Lowe was approached by the officer at about 10 p.m. after troopers spotted two cars racing down Peachtree Road. After noticing “a strong odor of an alcoholic beverage” on Lowe, the officer initiated a field sobriety test and arrested Lowe.
Lowe refused to take a breathalyzer test and was booked and cheesed for the mugshot shown here.
Here’s another recent MLB arrest, this one the DUI arrest of Indians’ outfielder Shin-Soo Choo with his arrest video and police cam sobriety test.
