West Virginia men's basketball coach Bob Huggins was arrested Friday night in Pittsburgh on a charge of driving under the influence, potentially putting his future with the program in jeopardy...
According to a police report, a breath test determined that Huggins' blood alcohol content was 0.21%, more than twice the legal limit of 0.08% in Pennsylvania. A blood sample also was taken from Huggins at a hospital prior to his release.
…
Huggins was arrested after Pittsburgh Police observed a black SUV blocking traffic just before 8:30 p.m. Friday. The vehicle had a "flat and shredded tire" and the driver's side door was open.
After directing the driver -- identified as Robert Huggins, 69, of Morgantown, West Virginia -- to move the vehicle off the road, officers observed Huggins having trouble maneuvering the SUV and pulled him over. The officers questioned Huggins and, believing he was intoxicated, asked him to perform field sobriety tests, which he failed.
Huggins told officers he had been to a basketball camp with his brother in Sherrodsville, Ohio -- about 90 minutes from Pittsburgh. An officer said Huggins was asked multiple times what city he was in but never got a clear response, with the coach mentioning the city of Columbus a few times.
