LOS ANGELES — Denver Nuggets point guard Ty Lawson has been arrested in Los Angeles on suspicion of driving under the influence of alcohol — his second DUI arrest this year.
California Highway Patrol Officer Jennifer Cassidy says Lawson was driving at a high rate of speed before being pulled over around 2 a.m. Tuesday on state Route 101 in Hollywood.
Cassidy says Lawson displayed several signs of intoxication. Jail records show he was released on $5,000 bail.
The Denver Nuggets said the team was aware of the arrest and would have no further comment. A message seeking comment from Lawson's agent, Happy Walters, was not immediately returned Tuesday.
