Former Australian cricketer and legend David Warner has been charged with drink driving. According to reports, Warner, who retired from international cricket in 2024, was pulled over by cops on Malabar Road in Maroubra in Sydney. Cops conducted a breath test on him that returned a positive reading for alcohol.
Following the test, Warner was charged with drink-driving and was arrested. He was taken to Maroubra police station, where authorities had him undergo a secondary test. The second Test returned another positive reading of 0.104. Warner is not set to face court next week.
