Aldon Smith Arrested for DUI

A player in the professional football scene is making quite a stir but in an unexpected way. He was arrested last week in Miami on charges of DUI. Aldon Smith, 22, plays for the Niners. He just ended a very promising season that included the second-most sacks every completed by a rookie in NFL. Success may have gotten to his head one night when he decided to go out celebrating his wins. Police in Miami noticed a vehicle swerving across the road and were surprised to see who was behind the wheel.

The details of Smith's DUI arrest are being kept a secret for the time being. It is uncertain whether he failed routine field sobriety tests, refused to take a breathalyzer or just how high his blood-alcohol level was at the time of arrest. If Smith is found to have violated the NFL's personal conduct policy, he could face fines or even a suspension. Facing DUI charges?
