Retired Olympic Soccer Gold Medalist Abby Wambach was arrested Saturday night in downtown Portland on a DUI charge. Details via KATU:
Portland Police say Wambach, 35, was pulled over at SW 14th Avenue and Yamhill Street after she ran a red light at SW 13th Avenue and Taylor Street.
Wambach failed field sobriety tests and was arrested for Driving Under the Influence of Intoxicants (DUII) – Alcohol. She was booked into the Multnomah County Jail several hours later, and released on her own recognizance.
It’s easy to jump on people who drive under the influence, but without knowing the complete situation, you shouldn’t bury someone. With that being said, with how easy it is to Uber (even as a poor person like myself), there is no reason to be driving while you’re drunk- it’s lazy and selfish.
