Detroit Tiger, Miguel Cabrera Arrested for DUI

Posted on February 17, 2011 by Antonio Irizarry

Just a year after alcohol abuse treatment and claiming he had been alcohol free since his domestic violence incident in back in October 2009, Miguel Cabrera is back in the legal spotlight.  

Last night, Cabrera was picked up for a DUI in St. Lucie County, Florida.  According to reports, Cabrera was "combative, argumentative, and belligerent".  Cabrera even stood in front of the officer, took a swig from his bottle of scotch and asked the officer, "Do you know who I am?".

Cabrera spent time in alcohol abuse treatment after his 2009 domestic violence incident with his wife.  He came out and made it clear that he had a problem and he was done with drinking.  Cabrera obviously has fallen off the wagon.  With Cabrera's spring training report date being Saturday, Cabrera will be looking forward to an array of questions regarding his future plans, possible suspensions, and time since his last alcohol related incident.  It is clear Cabrera has an alcohol problem and needs to address it.  

The worst part may be that Cabrera had a giant smile on his face for his mugshot.  Some people never learn.

Stay tuned for more on Cabrera......
