Kwame Brown arrested for DUI
August 19, 2003
BRUNSWICK, Ga. (AP) -- Washington Wizards forward Kwame Brown faces a charge of driving under the influence after being stopped while weaving along a highway near his hometown, according to a police report.
Brown's blood-alcohol content was almost twice the legal limit, and he smelled of alcohol and appeared unsteady on his feet during roadside sobriety tests about 3 a.m. Friday, Glynn County police officer Robert Sasser said in a report obtained Tuesday by The Georgia Times-Union.
Brown, 21, was charged with misdemeanor driving under the influence, having an open container of alcohol and failure to maintain a lane of travel, according to the report. He was released from the Glynn County Detention Center on a $925 bond pending a court date, which has not been set.
The former Glynn Academy star, the No. 1 pick in the 2001 NBA draft out of high school, could not be reached for comment.
Ernie Grunfeld, the Wizards' president of basketball operations, said he had talked to Brown.
``He and his representative are handling the situation. We will have no further comment until the matter is resolved,'' Grunfeld said.
NBA spokesman Mark Broussard said the league will not decide if Brown will be penalized ``until it goes through the court system.'' NBA players Stephon Marbury and Derrick Coleman served one-game suspensions after pleading no contest to DUI last summer.
Sasser's report said Brown tested positive when given a field alcohol sensor test. He then went to the jail for an Intoxilyzer test, which showed that Brown had a blood-alcohol content of 0.150 percent, Sasser said.
The legal limit in Georgia is 0.08 percent.
In April 2002, Brown was charged with speeding after being clocked driving 120 mph in a 60-mph construction zone on Interstate 16.
