Orlando City striker Larin arrested on DUI charge

The Canada international was arrested early Thursday morning after narrowly avoiding a head-on collision, according to police

Orlando City striker Cyle Larin was arrested early Thursday morning on a charge of driving under the influence.

Police say the 22-year-old Canada international was seen driving the wrong way on Orange Avenue in downtown Orlando shortly after 2:30 a.m., with Larin's car coming within "a few feet" of a head-on collision with another vehicle.

The arrest came after Larin was rested for Orlando's 3-1 home loss to Miami FC in the U.S. Open Cup fourth round Wednesday. The forward started and played 61 minutes in Canada's 2-1 win over Curacao on Tuesday in Montreal.
