Jermall Charlo has been given a charge of driving whilst intoxicated after a crash in Texas in May 2024 when he was suspected of being drunk.
The 34 year old crashed his Lamborghini and struck another driver – and, reported TMZ, also received a misdemeanour charge for leaving the scene of an accident, according to court documents dated August 20.
The same publication reports that the incident took place on May 6 on Brazoria County roadway, and that law enforcement said that Charlo had a verbal argument with the other driver before fleeing. He is said to have been tracked down by police who took his blood and found an alcohol content of .15 – almost twice the limit for the state of Texas.
The same police officers said that he looked intoxicated when he was being questioned. Their catching up with him followed their attempts to get him to pull over via the use of their blue lights and sirens, but him stopping only when other cars boxed him in a mile from the scene of the crash.
“Jermall has been in training,” said Charlo’s attorney Kent Schaffer at the time. “He has not been using any type of drugs.
“We are optimistic that there will be a good solution.”
