Marcell Ozuna arrested in Atlanta
Following multiple reports indicating that baseball player Marcell Ozuna could be in trouble again with Atlanta police in the state of Georgia, the Gwinnett County Sheriff’s Office confirmed that the Dominican was arrested early Friday morning. The Atlanta Braves player was pulled over and subsequently arrested for allegedly driving under the influence of alcohol and recklessly.
Ozuna was arrested at approximately 5:00 a.m. on Friday, August 19 in Gwinnett County. It is not the first time that the Dominican has had problems with the Atlanta police, after in 2021 he was arrested after several police officers witnessed an episode of domestic violence against his wife, which after the publication of the video taken by a camera went viral.
This new situation with the police occurs less than 15 months after the episode described above and only eleven months after Ozuna entered a program to address his behavior, in which he was placed by a court for six months of probation.
According to the report, the Dominican was released after being released on bail ($1,830) in the morning hours.
So far, the Atlanta Braves have not made any comment or publication regarding the situation.
