NEW YORK (AP) — Former New York Jets defensive end Muhammad Wilkerson is charged with driving while intoxicated after his arrest in New York City.
A police spokesman says the 29-year-old was arraigned Saturday in Manhattan Criminal Court and released on his own recognizance.
In addition to DWI, he’s accused of ignoring a stop sign and driving while ability-impaired.
Police say he was pulled over in the Washington Heights neighborhood before dawn with a blood-alcohol level of .09. The legal limit is .08.
His attorney, Alex Spiro, did not immediately respond to a request for comment.
