The officer whose footage was released said that if Lynch did not get out of his car, he would be charged with obstructing an investigation. Shortly after, another officer pulled him out of the car. He was handcuffed and told he was indeed under arrest for suspicion of DUI.
Video shows that Lynch was asleep at the wheel, smelled of alcohol, and was in what officers said was “undrivable condition. The front driver’s side tire was also off the car.
