Former Red Sox star Johnny Damon arrested in Florida
WINDERMERE, Fla. (AP) — Former All-Star baseball player Johnny Damon was arrested Friday in central Florida on a charge of resisting an officer after he was pulled over for suspicion of driving under the influence, according to court and jail records.
Damon, 47, was booked into the Orange County Jail early Friday after an incident in Windermere, Florida, a wealthy suburb of Orlando popular with professional athletes. He is charged with resisting an officer without violence, a first-degree misdemeanor.
An online court docket did not list an attorney listed for Damon who could comment.
Jail records show that Damon’s wife, Michelle Mangan-Damon, also was arrested.
