Troubled pitcher Carlos Perez was arrested late Saturday night for allegedly driving under the influence of alcohol, creating more headaches for frustrated Dodger officials already burdened by his big contract and poor performance. A Vero Beach police officer took Perez into custody after the struggling left-hander was observed sleeping behind the wheel of his maroon BMW at an intersection near Dodgertown at 11:03 p.m. EST, a one-paragraph police statement read. Perez took a roadside physical-performance test but refused to undergo a Breathalyzer test, according to a police spokesman with knowledge of an incident report expected to be released today. Perez spent eight hours in county jail and was released on $500 bond. Source : pqasb.pqarchiver.com |
