Carmelo Anthony DUI

  • NBA Superstar Carmelo Anthony was arrested on April 14, 2008 for suspicion of driving under the influence in Denver, Colorado.

    He reportedly was pulled over for not dimming his lights and for weaving in the lanes. He then failed several sobriety tests and consented to a blood test. The results of those tests will not be available for several days.

    The NBA will not exercise discipline until the results of the blood tests are returned.

    Quotes "I'm here to man up to my mistake, just to let you know that I'm truly sorry for what happened and everything that's going on," Anthony said. "What happened Monday morning was truly and totally unacceptable."Carmelo Anthony, ESPN.com
