AUBURN HILLS, Mich. – Former Detroit Red Wing Todd Bertuzzi has been charged for driving drunk in Auburn Hills last month, according to police.

Bertuzzi, 46, of Lake Orion, was pulled over around 11:50 p.m. Feb 26 in the area of northbound I-75 and M-59, officials said.

Callers reported a vehicle had been swerving all over the road. When police located the black 2020 Lincoln Navigator, it was south of Joslyn Road on northbound I-75, authorities said.

Police said Bertuzzi stopped at a flashing yellow light and later disregarded a red light at an intersection.

He was pulled over on Joslyn Road near Brown Road, according to officials.

Bertuzzi failed roadside sobriety evaluations and was arrested for operating while intoxicated, Auburn Hills police said.

He was taken to the Auburn Hills Police Department and refused a breath test, officials said. Police received a search warrant for a blood test.

Bertuzzi was taken to the Oakland County Jail and released after 12 hours, pending toxicology results, police said. Results showed his blood alcohol content was .25%, authorities said.
