We now have police bodycam footage of Tiger Woods’ arrest.
Last Friday, Woods was arrested for DUI after flipping over his car in Jupiter, Florida. Police reported that Woods appeared impaired and lethargic before he failed several sobriety tests.

Deputies quickly observed Tiger appeared impaired and lethargic. They conducted an alcohol test and it registered 0.00%. Sheriff John Budensiek said, during the news conference, he believes Tiger was not under the influence of alcohol, but rather medication.
Tiger was placed under arrest and taken to the station, where he refused a urine test. He was booked on DUI and refusal to submit to the urinalysis.
Nearly a week later, police have released the bodycam video of Woods’ arrest. In the video, Woods could be seen kneeling before explaining to the cops that he was looking at his phone before crashing his car.
“I looked down at my phone, and all of a sudden. Boom,” Woods told the officers.

While Woods has pleaded not guilty in the DUI case, he did announce that he plans to “seek treatment.”
“I know and understand the seriousness of the situation I find myself in today. I am stepping away for a period of time to seek treatment and focus on my health. This is necessary in order for me to prioritize my well-being and work toward lasting recovery.”
“I’m committed to taking the time needed to return in a healthier, stronger, and more focused place, both personally and professionally. I appreciate your understanding and support, and ask for privacy for my family, loved ones and myself at this time.
According to TMZ, Woods plans to check in to a facility overseas due to privacy concerns.
