2nd African-American athlete arrested for DUI, passes blood and breathalyzer tests.
Advertisements [?]
This is the second African-American athlete in a matter of weeks that was arrested for DUI, only to find out later that they weren't legally drunk. What's up with that?

The Arizona bust that got Tank Johnson booted from the Chicago Bears will not result in criminal charges, police said Thursday.

Sgt. Andrew Duncan of the Gilbert, Ariz., police said Johnson will not be prosecuted following a June arrest for allegedly driving under the influence. A blood test later revealed Johnson was not legally drunk.

"I am not surprised by this decision, but I am relieved," Johnson said in a statement.
