Tony Romo, former NFL QB and CBS announcer, arrested on driving under the influence charges

Former Dallas Cowboys quarterback Tony Romo was arrested Thursday night in Milwaukee after being accused of driving while under the influence.

The 46-year-old CBS Sports analyst performed poorly on field sobriety tests during a traffic stop shortly after 6 p.m. on Interstate 43, according to the arrest-detention report obtained by The Independent.

He was booked on OWI and later released. Romo’s court date is set for September 21 at 8:30 a.m.

This incident remains under investigation, and a further statement could come later Friday, the Milwaukee County Sheriff’s Office said.

This is the Burlington, Wisconsin, native’s first arrest. A first-offense OWI in Wisconsin is typically a civil offense punishable by a $150 to $300 fine.
