Jefferson Suspend 2 Games After DUI Arrest
Hooped Up | February 28, 2010
It’s been a bad weekend for NBA ballers and a good one for the law. This morning Al Jefferson of the Minnesota Timberwolves was arrested and charged with fourth degree driving while impaired.
Jefferson was arrested at 1:08 AM by the State Patrol and booked into Hennepin County Jail shortly around an hour later. He was released at 3:19 AM, according to jail records.
“We are disappointed that Al used poor judgment last night. Thankfully, nobody was injured,” David Kahn, the team’s president for basketball operations, said in a statement. “We believe it is appropriate for Al to be suspended for the next two games without pay.”
Jefferson was initially pulled over for speeding and field sobriety and blood tests were taken.
