Tiger Woods Arrested: Pills Found After Rollover Crash

Golfer Tiger Woods was arrested for driving under the influence after a single-vehicle rollover crash in Florida. Law enforcement officials found two white pills, later identified as hydrocodone, in his pocket.

Following the arrest, a legal dispute arose over prosecutors' access to Woods' prescription medication records. Despite his attorneys' objections citing privacy rights, a judge ruled that prosecutors would be permitted to obtain these records, though they will not be made public.

Woods, who has undergone multiple surgeries, informed officers that he takes several prescription medications. He has pleaded not guilty to the DUI charge and has entered a treatment program, which has temporarily put on hold his return to professional golf. He faces multiple charges including DUI and careless driving.
