Miami based rapper Flo Rida, 31, was arrested early Thursday morning for drunk driving. The Hip Hop artist whose real name is Tramar Dillard was stopped in his black and red Bugatti, worth close to $1.7 million, around 4 am near Miami Beach.
Miami police observed Flo Rida swerving in his lane and pulled him over. His blood alcohol content was reported to be .185 at the time of his arrest. With his money he can afford the very best DUI attorney, who may be able to keep him out of too much trouble.
TMZ, who obtained a copy of the police report, stated that a crowd gathered around Flo, and offered to drive him home. During a field sobriety test where Flo was asked to walk in a straight line, he asked the officer if he could take a different test, because he couldn’t walk a straight line, and admitted he had a few drinks. His DUI lawyer may have to challenge his admission in court. Flo also tried to convince the officer he could make it home, but he was arrested and as of 8am was still in jail.
Flo was also charged with driving under a suspended license because of an unpaid traffic ticket.
Being a famous rapper won’t exempt a person from a DUI. Keeping the streets safe is a priority for police so they will catch whoever they can. Hiring a DUI attorney is the best way for Flo Rida to minimize the impact his DUI will have.
