Oklahoma State WR Blackmon DUI

Oklahoma State Wide Receiver Justin Blackmon was arrested for charges of driving under the influence early Tuesday morning. Blackmon had been at the New York Giants vs. Dallas Cowboys game with some friends, and was pulled over for driving 92 MPH in a 60 MPH zone. During field sobriety tests, the officer detected the presence of alcohol. It does not appear that Blackmon was given a breathalyzer test. However, since he is only 20 years old, any detectable amount of alcohol is unlawful.
The Denton County District Attorney reported that the DUI charge is a Class C misdemeanor, likened the charge to a "traffic ticket," and stated that Blackmon faces only a $500 fine.
