ATLANTA — Braves outfielder Marcell Ozuna was arrested in Gwinnett County on Friday on a charge of driving under the influence of alcohol, Norcross police said.
Ozuna, 31, was taken into custody on Beaver Ruin Road and booked into the Gwinnett County jail shortly after 4:30 a.m., a Norcross police spokesman told The Atlanta Journal-Constitution. In addition to the charge of DUI less safe, he also is facing a charge of failure to maintain lane.
According to an incident report obtained by the AJC, Ozuna told the officer who pulled him over that he drank “three or four” beers earlier in the night. Ozuna submitted to a field sobriety test, but was placed under arrest when he refused a breath test, the report said.
