KIRKLAND, Wash. (AP)—Seattle Seahawks linebacker Lofa Tatupu was arrested during the weekend for investigation of drunken driving.
The three-time Pro Bowler was stopped early Saturday, Kirkland police said. An arrest report said Tatupu had breath tests of .155 and .158—the legal limit is .08.
The arresting officer wrote he saw a car driven by Tatupu speeding and changing lanes without signaling. The officer said he smelled alcohol, and Tatupu said he had not been drinking.
Tatupu’s car was impounded and he was taken to the police station for a breath test.
The Seahawks signed Tatupu to a $42 million contract extension in March.
