Bodycam shows Tony Romo arguing with officer before refusing breath test during DUI arrest
Newly released police bodycam footage shows former Dallas Cowboys quarterback Tony Romo questioning officers and refusing a breath test during his arrest on suspicion of operating while intoxicated (OWI) in Wisconsin. The footage, obtained by Fox News Digital, adds detail to a story that draws attention because Romo is a prominent NFL broadcaster and Hall of Fame-calibre former player, meaning the incident carries reputational significance for him.
The arrest took place on 23 July, with Romo telling the officer he had come from a golf course and insisted he had consumed "zero" alcoholic drinks. Despite his denial, he went on to refuse the breath test during the encounter, as captured on the officer's bodycam.
