Sheriff Joe = trouble for Iron Mike

Tyson faces DUI, drug charges

Mike Tyson was arrested early today on suspicion of driving under the influence and possession of cocaine after police stopped him shortly after he left a Scottsdale nightclub.

Sgt. Larry Hall said the boxer was stopped after his car almost struck a sheriff's vehicle while leaving the club at about 1:45 a.m.

"He showed signs of impairment and voluntarily submitted to field sobriety tests," said Hall, a member of the Buckeye Police Department who was working in the area as part of a holiday DUI task force.

Hall said Tyson was placed under arrest after "showing more signs of impairment" during the field sobriety tests. Police then found cocaine on him and in his car, Hall said. The boxer was alone in the car.

Tyson was booked at the Maricopa County sheriff's jail and was set to make an initial appearance on the drug possession and DUI charges Friday morning, Sheriff Joe Arpaio said.

Arpaio said Tyson ran a stop sign and almost hit a deputy.

"He had to slam on his brakes and take evasive action," Arpaio said of the officer. "Luckily the deputy was alert."

Arpaio said Tyson was being kept isolated from other prisoners for his own safety.

The sheriff said Tyson has been to the county jail before - as a guest talking to juvenile offenders about the dangers of drugs and alcohol.

"The irony is he did a great job with these kids - stay away from drugs, don't drink, stay out of trouble," Arpaio said.

Tyson, who shot to fame by knocking out Trevor Berbick in 1986 to become the youngest heavyweight champion in history at age 20, has had several run-ins with the law over the years, including serving prison time for rape. He most infamous incident was in the ring in 1997 when he bit Evander Holyfield's ear during a fight.

All Iron Mike really wants is a sympathetic ear

To bad he didn't try to fight with the cops so they could have shot him and all of our problems would be solved.
