Tiger Woods is in the spotlight again after being arrested for driving under the influence following a vehicle accident in Florida. Body camera footage from the incident, which occurred last week, shows Woods' disbelief at his arrest after a sobriety test was conducted by Martin County Sheriff’s deputy Tatiana Levenar.
During the encounter, Woods explained that he was adjusting the radio and looking at his phone when his speeding Land Rover collided with a truck and overturned. When informed he was under arrest, Woods replied, 'I’m being arrested?'
Further scrutiny revealed pills in Woods' pocket, which he identified as Norco, a painkiller containing acetaminophen and hydrocodone. Although Woods claimed he had consumed no alcohol that day, he did admit to taking several medications earlier.
Woods has entered a not guilty plea regarding the DUI charges and issued a statement indicating that he would be stepping away from golf for the foreseeable future to focus on his health and seek treatment.
