Jeff Hardy Arrested for DUI

Jeff Hardy was arrested last night in Volusia County, Florida on three charges:

  • DUI ALCOHOL/DRUGS 3RD OFFENSE WITHIN 10 YRS
  • DRIVING WHILE LICENSE CANCELED SUSPENDED/REVOKED
  • VIOLATING RESTRICTIONS PLACED ON DRIVER LICENSE

Hardy was booked into Volusia County Jail at 12:45 AM Sunday night / Monday morning and is scheduled to appear in court on Tuesday at 1:30 PM, according to PWInsider. As of now, PWInsider says that he is still in jail. His bail is listed at $3,500 for the offenses, but as of this writing he has not been bailed out.

Hardy was previously arrested for a DUI in March 2018 and October 2019, which is why the current charge is for his third offense within 10 years, which is considered a felony in Florida.

Hardy was at a wrestling autograph signing and musical performance at a Dave & Buster’s in Orlando on Sunday night.

ESPN’s Marc Raimondi provided this info from Hardy’s arrest report:

Per the Florida Highway Patrol arrest report on Jeff Hardy, a white car was seen “swerving” and “running off” the roadway Monday around 12:30 a.m. When the officer made a traffic stop and engaged Hardy, the wrestler seemed “to be in a stupor and confused,” per the report.

Once he left his car, Hardy was unsteady and smelled of alcohol, per the report. Officers, through conversation, learned Hardy had been drinking. Hardy could not complete any portion of sobriety exercises successfully “or without risk of falling,” the officer wrote in the report.

Officers administered a breath test and Hardy’s first sample read 0.294 of blood-alcohol content. A second sample read 0.291. The legal limit to drive in Florida is .08.

Hardy was scheduled to be part of a three way Tag Team Championship ladder match on this Wednesday’s Dynamite, teaming with Matt Hardy against Jungle Boy & Luchasaurus and the Young Bucks.
