‘I regret what happened’

DURHAM, N.C. — Former Duke University men’s basketball guard J.J. Redick was arrested early Tuesday and charged with driving while impaired, a Durham police spokeswoman said.

Kammie Michael, with the Durham Police Department, said Redick’s blood-alcohol level registered .11. The legal blood-alcohol level in North Carolina is .08.

Michael said the 21-year-old former Duke standout turned away from a police checkpoint at LaSalle Street and Kangaroo Drive shortly before 1 a.m. Officers then followed the 2005 Toyota sport utility vehicle he was driving to Belmont Apartments on McQueen Street, where Redick parked the car in a parking space.

“There wasn’t a chase. He didn’t run from them,” Michael said. “He was pretty cooperative.”

Way to go JJ - at least you commited a crime thousands of people get away with everday with the help of expensive lawyers and over worked courts. At least noone can accuse you of ‘celebrity justice’ ehh?

Maybe I should become a Tarheel after all…..nahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh
