Tiger Woods mugshot released after rollover crash in Florida leads to DUI charge

BGUK_3534157 - Tiger Woods mugshot released after rollover crash in Florida leads to DUI charge. Tiger Woods’ mugshot has been released after the pro golfer was involved in a rollover crash in Martin County, Florida - an incident that left the 15-time major champion facing a charge of driving under the influence, authorities said. The crash occurred just after 1pm near Jupiter Island, according to the Martin County Sheriff’s Office. Woods was taken to Martin County jail after the crash and has since been released from custody after being bonded out. He was charged with DUI with property damage and refusal to submit to a lawful test. At a press conference hours later, Martin County Sheriff John M. Budensiek said Woods was not injured in the crash, nor was the other driver involved. “Mr. Woods did not appear to be injured at all, and the other individual was not injured,” Sheriff Budensiek said, adding that Woods was ‘lethargic on scene because of what he was intoxicated on’. He also confirmed that Woods ‘did exhibit signs of impairment’. However, Sheriff Budensiek said: “Authorities were not suspicious of alcohol being involved in this case, and that proved to be true at the jail, where he blew triple zeroes on the breathalyzer test.” However, Woods refused to take a urinalysis test at the jail, Sheriff Budensiek said. According to authorities, Woods was alone in a Land Rover at the time of the crash. Sheriff Budensiek said they’re ‘not sure’ whether Woods was wearing a seatbelt at the time of the accident. The crash occurred when a pressure-cleaning truck pulling a small trailer was slowing down to turn into a driveway. The driver noticed a Land Rover ‘overtaking him at high speed’ and attempted to move to the side of the narrow, two-lane road. Authorities said Woods allegedly attempted to pass the truck at high speed as it was turning, but in trying to avoid a collision, his vehicle struck the back of the trailer, causing the SUV to lose balance, tip onto its side, and roll over onto the driver’s side before coming to a stop further up the road. Woods then exited the overturned vehicle through the passenger-side door. The incident marks another car accident involving Woods, who previously sustained serious injuries in a 2021 crash in Los Angeles that required surgery. He was also involved in a separate incident in 2009, also near his Florida home. *BACKGRID DOES NOT CLAIM ANY COPYRIGHT OR LICENSE IN THE ATTACHED MATERIAL. ANY DOWNLOADING FEES CHARGED
