Tiger Woods was arrested on Friday afternoon on suspicion of driving under the influence after his Range Rover rolled over on Jupiter Island in Florida, with local police alleging the 50-year-old golf star appeared to be under the influence of 'some type of medication or drug' when the vehicle flipped. The Martin County Sheriff's Office said Tiger Woods was not injured in the crash but now faces two misdemeanour DUI charges.
Authorities in Martin County were called at just after 2 pm to reports of a rollover involving Tiger Woods' SUV on Jupiter Island, a heavily protected, affluent barrier island north of West Palm Beach, where he has long kept a home. Photos shared with local media showed the Range Rover on its side after Woods attempted to pass a pressure cleaner truck, swerved to avoid an oncoming vehicle, and clipped the back end of the truck's trailer. Deputies took Woods into custody at the scene and transported him to the county jail.
