Chicago Bears WR Byron Pringle was busted on Saturday in Florida by the cops after doing donuts in his sports car with a child in the car.
As if that wasn’t enough of an offense, he did that on a suspended license. According to the cops, Byron Pringle was uncooperative and verbally confrontational with them via TMZ Sports;
28-year-old Pringle — an NFL vet out of Kansas State — was pulled over by Florida Highway Patrol in his Orange 2016 Dodge Challenger SRT Hellcat around 6 PM in Pasco County, FL after an FHP officer says he witnessed the car burning rubber, doing donuts on a public road, according to an incident report we obtained.
FYI, the Hellcat has over 700 HP … and has a top speed of around 200 MPH. The car starts at over $65K.
Police say Byron was the driver of the vehicle. The car had two passengers … an adult male in the front passenger seat, and a male child in the back seat. We’re told the kid was Pringle’s.
When police ran Pringle’s license, they say it came back suspended.
Byron was taken into custody at 6:15 PM … when he was taken to the county jail. He was arrested for Reckless Driving and driving on a suspended license.
The Hellcat was towed to a local yard.
NFL players do some wild stuff in the offseason. Why are you doing donuts in the Hellcat in the middle of the evening with your kid in the car? Did Pringle not see what happened with Henry Ruggs III? It amazes me how dumb these players are. Pringle just got a new contract with the Bears and he is already acting like a fool.
Do better Mr. Pringle if not for yourself, but for your kid. The Bears say they are monitoring the situation.
