Pro Wrestler Kurt Angle Charged With DUI

CORAOPOLIS, Pa. — Pro wrestler Kurt Angle was charged with drunken driving and careless driving when he drove home from a bar near his home in the Pittsburgh
suburbs last week, police said.

Angle was charged Friday after a motorist called police in Moon Township about 2 p.m. to report a Cadillac Escalade was driving erratically, according to
a police news release.

Police used the license number to determine the vehicle belonged to Angle and went to his home, where police said the wrestler acknowledged driving home
from a bar.

Angle appeared to be intoxicated and failed a field sobriety test before refusing a blood test, police said.

Angle, 38, won a gold medal in the 1996 Summer Olympics before becoming a local television sportscaster and then a pro wrestler.

It was not immediately clear if Angle had an attorney. His home telephone number was unlisted.

Note from Casey: Dude was hammered at 2:00 in the afternoon.

Update: Lyonel Huts' defense of Angle begins
