Earlier this year, the Detroit Pistons star was arrested for a DUI, for which he is now facing a two game suspension from the league (which was just announced). It appears that the punishment from the league isn’t the worst part of the whole ordeal. Hit the jump for details.
Via CBS Sports:
Detroit Pistons big man Greg Monroe “urinated on himself during the booking process” after being charged with impaired driving in February, the Huntington Woods police report says, via MLive’s Gus Burns.
Huntington Woods police released video footage of the Feb. 13 stop and arrest, which stemmed from a defective headlight, on Wednesday.
“I’m just trying not to be in the newspaper,” Monroe is heard saying to the officers during transport to the jail.
“I play for the Pistons,” Monroe said.
“You play for the Detroit Pistons,” asks one of the officers in the vehicle. “Unless you told people that are going to tell people, we don’t tell people,” an officer is heard saying.
Monroe failed the field sobriety test, missing a letter while reciting the alphabet with “slow and deliberate speech,” swaying when asked to count backwards to 78 from 100 and unable to walk a straight line, the report says.
Ouch that sounds so embarrassing!
