Twinkle toes Pittsburgh Steelers’ Hines Ward was caught seeing "Black and Yellow, Black and Yellow" cop car colors that is. Ward was arrested for drinking and driving on Saturday morning at around 3:40 a.m. just outside of Atlanta.
The two-time Superbowl Champion was stopped by DeKalb police, on Buford Highway after an officer spotted his Aston Martin failing to maintain lane and hitting a curb.
Ward reportedly failed a field sobriety test and refused to take a breathalyzer test. The 35 year old was later released on $1,300 jail bond, and claims that he was not impaired when driving.
“(Ward) cooperated fully with the police and truthfully answered all of their questions….From our preliminary investigation we can tell you that we are confident that the facts will show that Hines was NOT impaired by alcohol while driving. However, Hines is deeply saddened by this incident and apologizes to his fans and the Steelers organization for this distraction,” said Ward’s attorney in a statement, reports ESPN.com.
