Florida police release Tiger Woods’ DUI arrest video

Police in Florida have released video of Tiger Woods’ DUI arrest.

Jupiter police released the dash-cam footage Wednesday.

Officers on patrol early Monday noticed a Mercedes pulled awkwardly to the side of the road with the engine running, the brake lights on and a right turn signal blinking. Both tires on the left side of the car were flat and police described fresh damage to the driver’s side.

The video shows officers approach the car and Woods, who didn’t know where he was. The footage also shows Woods stumble and sway through a field sobriety test before being arrested.

A breath test registered a blood alcohol level of 0.00 percent. Woods later said his condition was caused by prescription medications.

“I understand the severity of what I did and I take full responsibility for my actions,” Woods said in a statement Monday. “I want the public to know that alcohol was not involved. What happened was an unexpected reaction to prescribed medications. I didn’t realize the mix of medications had affected me so strongly.”

Woods is to be arraigned July 5 in Palm Beach County court on the DUI charge.
