49ers' Aldon Smith arrested; denies he was driving drunk

Police in Santa Clara, Calif., arrested former Mizzou standout and current San Francisco 49ers linebacker Aldon Smith on Thursday and later told reporters that he will be charged with drunk driving, hit-and-run, and vandalism.

No other details were made available by the police. Upon his release from jail Friday morning, Smith told KGO Radio in San Francisco that he was sorry he had gotten in trouble again but denied he had been driving under the influence.

“Simple as this: Justice will be served, the truth will come out, there’s no DUI," Smith said in the interview with KGO.
