WCF Wrestler Shaun Jackson Arrested
February 10, 2011 | 1:28AM
WCF wrestler and former Division 1 Collegiate Wrestler Shaun Jackson has been arrested in Southern California for several offences, including driving under the influence and reckless driving, according to multiple news sources.
Officers initally tried to pull over Mr. Jackson after officers witnessed his car drifting back and forth between lanes. When officers tried to pull him over, he allegedly took off and led police on an hour long chase in which he reached speeds of up to 95MPH. The chase ended when Jackson eventually pulled into a parking lot and exited vehicle. After initially refusing to comply, officers were forced to use a taser to bring down the 6'8", near 300lb Jackson. Officers were then able to handcuff him, and that is when they noticed a strong smell of alcohol coming from his breath. After being hauled to a nearby county jail, officers administered a breathalyzer and found his BAC to be .14, well over the .08 limit.
Jackson is expected to be charged with one count of driving under the influence, one count of reckless driving and one count of resisting arrest. Currently he is out on bail after an unknown individual posted his $10,000 bail.
