Former U.S. women’s national team star Hope Solo is facing multiple charges, including DWI, after her Thursday arrest in Winston-Salem, N.C.
The news of Solo’s arrest was first reported by TMZ, and later confirmed to Sports Illustrated by the Winston-Salem Police Department.
According to an email from Winston-Salem PD, Solo, 40, has been charged with impaired driving (DWI), resisting arrest and misdemeanor child abuse. The latter charge came after officers discovered her two children, two-year-old twins Vittorio and Lozen, in the car at the time of the offense.
Solo was taken to the Forsyth County Law Enforcement Detention Center and subsequently released after processing.
