Colts Receiver Keenan Allen Charged With Two Misdemeanor OWI Counts
Indianapolis Colts wide receiver Keenan Allen was formally charged this week with operating a vehicle while intoxicated, with a reported breath-test result of .224, according to ESPN.
Indianapolis Colts wide receiver Keenan Allen was formally charged with two misdemeanor counts of operating while intoxicated (OWI) on Wednesday, according to a report from ESPN.
ESPN reported that Allen allegedly registered a blood alcohol content of .224 on a breath test, a figure well above the legal limit for driving in most U.S. states, which is typically 0.08.
Details regarding the circumstances of Allen's arrest, including the date, location and arresting agency, were not included in the available report. ESPN's account indicates the charges were filed this week, with the formal charging occurring on Wednesday.
The Colts organization has not issued a public statement regarding the charges, according to available reporting. It remains unclear whether the NFL has commented on the matter or whether any league discipline is being considered.
Allen, a veteran wide receiver, joined the Colts organization as part of his NFL career. Further legal proceedings related to the misdemeanor charges are expected to follow, though no court date was specified in the available reporting.
This is a developing story, and additional details may emerge as legal proceedings continue.
