Rodman, 56, was stopped at
11:11 pm Saturday for a vehicle violation, said Police Lieutenant Rachel
Johnson in Newport Beach, California, south of Los Angeles.
Dennis Rodman, a five-time
NBA champion and sometime buddy of North Korean leader Kim Jong-un, was
released from jail on Sunday after being detained overnight on suspicion of
drunk driving, police said.
TMZ reported that Rodman
failed a field sobriety test and was taken to the station, where he failed an
alcohol breathalyzer test as well.
Johnson said Rodman was
cooperative with police and was released shortly after 6 am.
“Dennis is taking this
seriously and will take positive steps to address his personal issues,”
Rodman’s lawyer, Paul S. Meyer, said in a statement to the New York Daily News.
“He appreciates the professionalism of the Newport Beach Police Department.”
Rodman, a two-time NBA
Defensive Player of the Year, pleaded guilty to driving under the influence in
1999.
