Michael Phelps Arrested On DUI Charge……Again

Celebrated Olympic swimming champ Michael Phelps was arrested early Tuesday morning for driving under the influence, police say.

The arrest happened in Phelps’ hometown of Baltimore, Maryland around 1:40 AM local time.

According to police, Phelps, 29, was also charged with excessive speed and crossing double lines within the Fort McHenry tunnel on I-95 in Baltimore. Police also say he was driving 84 mph in a 45-mph zone.

The report went on to say that Phelps was “unable to perform satisfactorily a series of standard field sobriety tests.”

Phelps was taken in to custody and later released.

This is the second DUI incident for the Olympian. In 2004, a then 19-year old Phelps was arrested for drunken driving and sentenced to eighteen months probation.

In 2009, a photo was made public of Phelps with a marijuana pipe.

Several attempts by media outlets to Phelps’ representatives for a statement have not been returned.
