Source: Reid Son Fails Sobriety Test After Crash
Britt Reid In Custody, Not Charged

There has been another incident involving a troubled son of Eagles head coach Andy Reid.
Britt Reid was being treated at a hospital after he allegedly caused a drunken and unruly scene at a local shopping center.
Police said Reid has not been charged.
The incident happened before 4 p.m. at the Plymouth Meeting Metroplex, NBC 10's Mike Strug reported. The only evidence of what happened seemed to be a smashed shopping cart that witnesses said was struck by a pickup truck driven by Reid.
A few minutes before that, at the Dick's Sporting Goods, employees said Reid appeared to be drunk and was behaving badly, and he was either escorted from the store or asked to leave, Strug reported. Police were called at that time.
Witnesses told NBC 10 that Reid then got into his pickup, drove across the parking lot and hit the shopping cart.
No one was reported injured, but a police source tells NBC 10 Reid failed a field sobriety test.
Police said Reid was taken to Mercy Suburban Hospital after the crash for a blood test, the results of which will not be back for several days, NBC 10 reported.
NBC 10 cameras later captured Reid being taken into the Plymouth Township police station in handcuffs, where he remains at this time.
Someone will have to come pick Reid up because his pickup has been impounded, NBC 10 reported.
The 22-year-old was previously arrested for a road rage incident in which he allegedly flashed a gun Jan. 30.
Britt Reid had another big brush with the law Jan. 30 in West Conshohocken. He was arrested for a road-rage incident in which he admitted flashing a gun at a Delaware County man.
Investigators searched Reid's car and found drugs. They later learned Reid didn't have a license to possess the gun he used in the incident.
Reid has pleaded guilty to those charges and is awaiting sentencing.
The Eagles told NBC 10 they had no immediate comment on the incident.
