Charles Barkley: Sweaty Mug Shot!

Charles Barkley‘s mug shot is not so pretty!

The 45-year-old former basketball powerhouse was arrested for suspicion of DUI early Wednesday in Arizona.

”The officer identified the driver of the 2005 Infinity as Charles Barkley,” according to a written statement from police. ”Mr. Barkley was administered the standard field sobriety tests after the odor of intoxicating liquor was detected.”

The statement continued, ”Upon conclusion of the booking procedure, he was cited and released. This is common practice for the Gilbert Police Department in many DUI cases. Mr. Barkley was treated in the same manner as all other impaired drivers who are arrested by the Gilbert Police Department.”

The police put him in a cab, he didn’t drive away himself. If the person can afford a cab the cops will let them go, instead of wasting time and money putting him in a cell.

“Barkley, 45, was busted after failing field sobriety tests, and had blood drawn so investigators could establish his alcohol content. Barkley, pictured in the below Gilbert Police Department mug shot, was cited and released at the scene, thus avoiding a trip to the Maricopa County jail”.
It seems to me that cops that had stopped him at the checkpoint were rasist, don’t you think so?
