According to North Providence Police Dept. documents, Butler was thrown behind bars back on March 16 after officers say he displayed signs of driving drunk during a traffic stop.

Karen Huger First Photos From Crash Site ... Shows Extent of Damage

Karen Huger's scary Tuesday night crash seems to have left its mark on the area ... with the first photos from the scene appearing to show just how close Karen came to disaster.

The pics, obtained by TMZ, show where the 'Real Housewives' star swerved off the road in Potomac, MD -- leaving lots of skids and torn-up grass before slamming into a tree ... taking a big chunk of the bark with her. We've confirmed these were taken at the specific location mentioned in the court docket that laid out all of Karen's charges and traffic violations.

The photos and video we got give a clear indication of how serious the wreck was -- honing in on the point of contact where Karen went off the roadway -- which she says she did to avoid an oncoming car -- this after having a very emotional dinner with a friend of hers.

Police however tell a different tale ... with Montgomery County PD now offering another update on what they say went down after Karen had her accident.

As we reported ... cops had told us Karen hit the median and a street sign late Tuesday night while driving her 2017 Maserati -- and we're now told a security guard in the neighborhood saw the whole thing and called the police.

A MCPD rep says fire rescue and police officers responded to the call with an ambulance ... but, police say Huger refused to go to the hospital or be evaluated.

We're told KH was then taken into custody and transported to a district station ... with police telling us she was actually arrested and cited for DUI that evening ... but wasn't booked into their jail. Instead, they tell us she was released to her husband, Raymond.

Karen was also cited for other traffic violations before being released.

SCENE OF THE WRECK
TMZ.com

Huger hasn't addressed the DUI/DWI charges yet ... the only thing she mentioned to us Wednesday was a car going straight for her while she was driving ... which she says caused her to swerve to dodge it -- explaining she miraculously walked away without injuries.

Given how the crash scene looks ... Huger may actually have a guardian angel on her side like she says.

'RHOP' Star Karen Huger Charged w/ DUI ... In Connection to Crash

Karen Huger has been charged with driving under the influence and hit with several other traffic violations in connection with her car crash this week ... TMZ has learned.

According to online court records, the 'Real Housewives of the Potomac' star is facing one count of DUI over Tuesday night's wreck -- which notes she has to make a mandatory court appearance to answer for it. She's facing an additional DWI charge as well here.

There are several other alleged infractions she's been dinged with too -- per the docket -- that touch on everything from negligent and reckless driving to driving way over the speed limit and driving with a suspended registration. The 6 traffic violations she was cited with don't require court appearances ... and have fines attached ranging from $50 to $510.

We broke the story ... Huger was driving her 2017 Maserati late Tuesday night in Potomac, Maryland in what police described as an aggressive manner.

Cops told us Karen struck a median and crosswalk sign at an intersection before continuing on and colliding with a parking sign off the roadway. The car itself was badly damaged, but Karen told us she was doing fine after the accident ... which she chalked up to driving while in a super emotional state.

Huger said she went to dinner with a friend where she said the two talked about some pretty emotional topics -- including KH's deceased mother -- saying it left her bawling while trying to drive home and she says she swerved to avoid a car coming directly at her.

Huger did note she received citations, one of which she says was not related to the incident ... but, made no mention of being intoxicated or arrested in her statement to us. Cops didn't tell us she'd been arrested either ... and there's no record of her having been booked in their jail.

Montgomery County PD says the reason charges weren't mentioned earlier Wednesday is because all that was available at the time was a preliminary collision report -- and that a police report would have further info. We haven't obtained that police report just yet ... but clearly, cops felt something criminal had happened here -- evidenced in the court update.

We've reached out to Huger for further comment ... so far, no word back.

Britt Reid Andy Reid's Son ... Prison Sentence Commuted To House Arrest

UPDATE

4:22 PM PT -- Tom Porto, the attorney for Ariel Young and her family, just released a statement on Britt Reid's commutation to TMZ Sports ... saying simply, "What’s different between this criminal defendant and every other criminal defendant in the state of Missouri?"

Ex-Kansas City Chiefs assistant coach Britt Reid -- Andy's son -- just had his three-year prison sentence commuted to house arrest.

Missouri Governor Mike Parson made the surprising decision on Friday ... a little over a year after Reid was thrown behind bars for his role in a DWI crash that left a 5-year-old girl, Ariel Young, with life-altering brain injuries.

A spokesperson for Parson explained the move in a statement to media outlets ... saying, "Reid had completed his alcohol abuse treatment program and has served more prison time than most individuals convicted of similar offenses."

As part of his commutation, Reid will remain on house arrest until October 31, 2025. He'll have to abide by a lengthy list of conditions in order to avoid being thrown back in prison, however -- including working at least 30 hours a week, submitting to random drug screenings, and completing at least 10 hours a month of community service.

Reid is also forbidden from making contact with Young or her family members.

Reid was first hit with criminal charges in the case after authorities said he got drunk days before the Chiefs vs. Buccaneers Super Bowl in 2021 and slammed his pickup truck into the back of a car Young had been riding in.

Authorities alleged Reid was going 83.9 MPH in a 65 MPH zone just before the wreck, and had a BAC of .113 two hours following the accident.

Dash cam footage captured at the scene showed Reid was wearing a Chiefs COVID mask and a Chiefs sweatshirt in the minutes after the crash.

Reid lost his job with Kansas City's NFL franchise a short time later ... and didn't work in the league again before beginning his sentence in November 2022.

We've reached out to an attorney for the Young family for comment, but so far, we haven't heard back yet.

Marshawn Lynch Cuts Deal In Las Vegas DUI Case

Marshawn Lynch just cut a deal with prosecutors in his DUI case ... avoiding a trial that was slated to begin in Las Vegas later Wednesday.

Court documents, obtained by TMZ Sports, show that as part of the agreement, the former NFL star's misdemeanor DUI charge will be reduced down to a reckless driving one if he completes several conditions.

Some of those, the docs show, include 200 hours of community service, DUI school, a $1,140 fine and keeping his nose clean for the next 12 months.

As an additional part of the deal, prosecutors agreed to drop the other charges Lynch had been facing.

Court records show Lynch is now due back in court for a hearing in the case in May.

Lynch's attorneys, Richard Schonfeld and David Chesnoff, said in a statement to 8 News Now following the agreement, "Mr. Lynch has not been convicted of any offense at this time. He has agreed to complete certain requirements which will result in this case being closed as a reckless driving traffic offense."

The ex-Seattle Seahawks running back was initially charged with the DUI -- as well as, among other things, one count of failure to drive in a travel lane -- back in August 2022 ... after officials accused him of getting behind the wheel of a 2020 Shelby GT500 while drunk.

Officials claimed Lynch tore up his car on the roadway ... before he parked it and fell asleep.

Police video shows when officers confronted Lynch ... he seemed uncooperative. And, after cops said he was "obstructing" their investigation, they pulled him from the car.

DRAGGED TO THE GROUND

"Roll over," the cops could be heard telling him as they wrestled him to the ground. "Hands behind your back. No more games today."

Lynch's attorneys argued at the time "the vehicle was safely parked and not in operation" -- and therefore the DUI charge shouldn't stick.

Lynch, 37, last played in the NFL in 2019. He's done various TV work, including assisting in this year's coverage of "Thursday Night Football," in retirement.

Zachery Ty Bryan Happy Hour Drinks ... Only Days After DUI Bust

Zachery Ty Bryan still seems to be boozing after his recent DUI arrest -- hitting a couple bars this week ... although, it looks like he learned his lesson on getting behind the wheel.

The former "Home Improvement" star was spotted Tuesday for the first time since his Saturday morning bust in La Quinta, CA for allegedly driving under the influence ... and he stopped by two different watering holes in the same desert resort town, back to back.

First, Zachery went to the Amigos bar there around 3 PM yesterday ... plopping down at the bar for happy hour. There aren't any photos that explicitly show him sucking down drinks -- but it's a good bet that he probably might've been.

Now, we're told he stuck around for about an hour at Amigos before moving on to the next joint ... but he didn't drive on over -- he actually caught a rideshare this time.

Luckily, Zach played it safe on Tuesday ... responsibly grabbing an Uber to take him over to a local Applebee's, where he popped in and once again grabbed a chair at their bar.

Zachery again sat down ... and here, he was seen with a cold draft beer in front of him. He got to Applebee's around 4:15 PM, still prime time for happy hour by anyone's clock.

Obviously, him in this kind of setting is somewhat alarming -- especially when we know he was literally behind bars just a few days ago for allegedly drinking and driving. Yes, it's good that he's trying to be responsible by using Uber, but the fact he's in a boozy environment like this at all is troubling. Ya gotta wonder if everything's alright with him these days.

TMZ broke the story ... Bryan was arrested by La Quinta Police early Saturday morning for driving under the influence. He was also booked for misdemeanor contempt of court.

Cops say they conducted a traffic stop just past 2 AM after they saw a vehicle they suspected of being involved in a traffic collision. Police say they spoke with the driver -- later identified as Bryan -- who allegedly showed signs of impairment, leading to his arrest.

KEEPING THINGS PRIVATE
CBS Sports

Patrick Mahomes says his father is "doing good" following his DWI arrest ... but the Chiefs star didn't want to reveal much further about his dad's legal issues, explaining, "It's a family matter."

The quarterback opened up briefly about Patrick Mahomes Sr.'s situation while he was on the podium at Super Bowl Opening Night at Allegiant Stadium on Monday ... after he was asked twice about his pops' run-in with cops on Saturday in Texas.

He kept things short and sweet ... saying at first, "I don't really want to get into it too much, but he's doing good for whatever the situation is."

Then, he shut down the line of questioning ... adding in a follow-up, "It's a family matter. So I'll just keep it to the family. And, that's all I really have to say at this point."

As we reported, Mahomes Sr. was booked on a charge of driving while impaired over the weekend after authorities claimed he showed signs of being intoxicated during a routine traffic stop in Tyler.

Authorities wrote in police documents that Mahomes Sr. admitted to having "a few beers while watching a game at a local bar" before getting behind the wheel. They added he also had an open 16-ounce can of Coors in his center console.

It's Mahomes Sr.'s third DWI -- and if he's convicted this time, he's facing up to 10 years behind bars.

However, Mahomes Sr. will still be allowed to travel to Vegas to watch his son in Super Bowl LVIII despite the troubles ... the judge who handled his case did not impose a travel ban as part of his bond conditions. It remains to be seen, though, if the younger Mahomes will now want him in attendance.

Cynthia Bailey Ex Peter Thomas Arrested For DUI

UPDATE

10:55 AM PT -- Peter Thomas has broken his silence on his recent arrest ... taking full responsibility for what went down last week.

In the clip, filmed from a plane and posted on his Instagram Friday, Peter says his phone has been blowing up and wanted to address the incident -- claiming he refused to blow for a breathalyzer test during the ordeal, and was in the hospital due to his high blood pressure.

"I REFUSED TO BLOW"

He says he willingly turned himself in, and it was a quick process ... thanking the Cobb County Police Department for how they handled the whole thing.

Peter admits he's never been arrested for DUI and is mindful -- adding his younger brother died as a result of drunk driving in the past ... before thanking everyone for their concerns.

Cynthia Bailey's ex-husband, Peter Thomas, has been arrested for DUI, TMZ has confirmed ... after allegedly weaving between lanes and flying through a red light.

According to the docs, obtained by TMZ, officers in Atlanta say they spotted Peter weaving without tags on his SUV last week, so they followed him -- claiming he blew through a red light after exiting the interstate.

PD then pulled him over, and said they detected "a strong odor of an alcoholic beverage" coming from his car ... and said Peter had "watery, glassy, and bloodshot eyes."

After some field sobriety tests, Peter was placed under arrest for DUI -- they say he agreed to a blood test, but when he and cops arrived at the hospital, they say he changed his mind.

They initially brought him to Cobb Adult Detention Center, but he was denied due to blood pressure ... so he was brought back to the hospital and was left with staff -- what a night.

Cops later obtained an arrest warrant for Peter, and he was charged with DUI alcohol, as well as a slew of other traffic-related charges. According to journalist Kiki Monique, Peter was released later on the same day after posting his $3k bail.

The former "Real Housewives of Atlanta" first got in front of the camera in season 3 along with his girl, Cynthia Bailey -- the 2 got engaged and married on the show, but he bowed out of the series in season 9 when he and the model got divorced.

Israel Adesanya Hit With 6-Month Driving Ban, Fine ... In New Zealand DUI Case

Israel Adesanya was just punished for his DUI in New Zealand ... but he left the courtroom apparently in a good mood -- 'cause things could've been a whole lot worse for the UFC star.

The 34-year-old fighter appeared in Auckland District Court on Wednesday morning regarding allegations that he had driven drunk in the city back on Aug. 19.

Police said that after stopping Adesanya, he told them he had two cocktails before getting behind the wheel. Cops added he had a blood alcohol reading of 87 milligrams per 100 millilitres -- well over the legal limit of 50 milligrams per 100 millilitres.

He was facing a punishment of up to three months behind bars for it. But, he and his attorney asked for a lighter sentence.

Adesanya's lawyer claimed a conviction in the case would affect his sponsorship deals -- potentially costing him six figures. He also argued that a conviction could prevent Adesanya from traveling to Canada for UFC 297 later this month.

Fortunately for Adesanya, the judge did appear to go easy on him -- as according to Stuff.co.nz, he opted not to convict the former champ. But, he did hit The Stylebender with a six-month driving ban and a $1,500 fine.

Adesanya had previously apologized for his role in the case ... saying in a statement, "I am disappointed with my decision to drive. It was wrong. I know that people might follow me and I want them to know I do not think this behaviour is acceptable."

Adesanya is now expected to be free and clear to be Octagon-side when Sean Strickland and Dricus Du Plessis fight on Jan. 20 in Toronto.

Tiffany Haddish Es acusada de conducir en estado de ebriedad en L.A.

Tiffany Haddish está siendo acusada por su última detención por conducir en estado de ebriedad (DUI). Esto, después de que fuera arrestada por beber y conducir después de una noche de fiesta en Beverly Hills el mes pasado.

El caso de la actriz estaba siendo revisado por la Oficina del Fiscal del Distrito de Los Ángeles y han decidido acusarla por conducir bajo la influencia del alcohol y manejar con una alcoholemia de 0,08%.

TMZ fue el primero en informar la noticia, la actriz fue encontrada desplomada al volante en Beverly Hills, bloqueando la carretera con su carro.

Tiffany fue fichada por DUI y detención indebida en una carretera, pero menos de 24 horas después estaba otra vez en el escenario, esta vez de Long Beach, actuando e incluso haciendo una broma rápida sobre su detención.

Sin embargo, Tiffany cambió rápidamente su tono y se tomó en serio la detención, sobre todo porque ya tiene un caso de DUI en Georgia derivado de enero de 2022.

De hecho, a la luz de su arresto en Cali, los fiscales de Georgia están presionando para que existan restricciones más estrictas sobre ella. Particularmente, quieren modificar las condiciones de fianza de su caso abierto de DUI para restringir su consumo de alcohol y drogas por completo.

Por cierto, si Tiffany es condenada por ambos delitos, tanto California como Georgia tienen leyes que requieren tiempo en la cárcel por un segundo delito. En California el mínimo es de 4 días, en Georgia es de 3 días.

Tiffany desde entonces le dijo a ET que necesita "obtener ayuda" para "aprender del equilibrio y los límites", y agregó que "esto no volverá a suceder".

Hasta ahora, todo bien ... Recientemente, Tiffany celebró su cumpleaños 44, o mejor dicho, el "próximo capítulo de su vida", sin una pizca de alcohol a la vista.

TIFFANY HADDISH CHARGED IN L.A. DUI

Tiffany Haddish has been charged in her latest DUI arrest ... after she got busted for drinking and driving following a night out in Beverly Hills last month.

The actress' case was under review by the L.A. District Attorney's Office and they've decided to charge her with driving under the influence of alcohol and driving with a .08% BAC.

She was booked for DUI and improper stopping on a roadway -- but less than 24 hours later, was back onstage performing down in Long Beach -- not resisting a quick quip about her arrest.

However, Tiffany quickly changed her tune ... getting serious about the arrest -- especially as she already has a DUI case in Georgia stemming from Jan 2022.

In fact, in light of her Cali arrest, Georgia prosecutors are pushing for stricter restrictions on her -- wanting to modify the bond conditions from her open DUI case there to restrict her from using booze and drugs completely.

BTW ... if Tiffany is convicted of both offenses, both California and Georgia have laws that require jail time for a second offense -- in CA, the minimum is 4 days, in GA it's 3 days.

Tiffany's since told ET she needs to "get help" to "learn balance and boundaries" -- adding, "this will never happen again."

So far, so good ... as Tiffany recently rang in her 44th birthday, AKA, her "next chapter in life," without a lick of booze in sight.

Tiffany Haddish Seems to Ditch Booze for Her Bday 'Ready For My Next Chapter'

Tiffany Haddish appears to have ditched booze during her birthday celebration this weekend -- that is, if her reported sober behavior earlier in the week is any indication.

The comedian celebrated her 44th born day Sunday ... and it looks like it was a musical affair. She posted a clip of herself performing in this big cabaret-type show at a private shindig where she was front and center in front of a lot of friends.

Waiting for your permission to load the Instagram Media.

Her caption reads, "Happy Birthday to me!!!!! I am ready for my next chapter in life." TF goes on to share she has more original music coming, not to mention another book ... among other ventures.

She adds (somewhat cryptically) ... "I keep my promises anyone that knows me knows that. It might take some time but I always keep my promise. Just ask God."

Waiting for your permission to load the Instagram Media.

While she didn't specifically mention her DUI from a couple weeks ago, it sounds like she might be touching on it here. Not just that, but Page Six reports that Tiffany was actually among Paris Hilton's many famous guests at her "Slivmas" holiday party earlier last week ... and they say she was completely sober there.

If true, that's big news considering she got arrested for allegedly drinking and driving (again) after a night out in L.A. -- this, of course, about a year after she got arrested for the same thing out in Georgia. If she was steering clear of alcohol at Paris' bash, it stands to reason she might've done the same at her own.

Tiffany Haddish Fiscales de Georgia quieren restringir su consumo de drogas y alcohol tras segundo DUI

Hay que prohibirle a Tiffany Haddish el consumo de drogas y alcohol después de su último arresto por conducir en estado de ebriedad (DUI) en California. Al menos eso es lo que quieren los fiscales de Georgia, donde ella también tiene un caso de DUI.

De acuerdo con nuevos documentos legales obtenidos por TMZ, los fiscales estatales de Georgia quieren que un tribunal modifique las condiciones de fianza de su caso de DUI con el fin de restringir su consumo de alcohol y drogas.

Tiffany esposada
TMZ.com

Están pidiendo este cambio luego de la última detención de Tiffany por conducir en estado de ebriedad, que ocurrió la semana pasada en Beverly Hills.

Como les dijimos por primera vez, Tiffany fue detenida la madrugada del viernes pasado después de un concierto la noche de Acción de Gracias en el Laugh Factory. Agentes de la policía de Beverly Hills esposaron y arrestaron a Tiffany. Habían recibido una llamada alrededor de las 5:45 AM de que una persona estaba detenida en medio de Beverly Drive, supuestamente desplomada detrás del volante de un carro, con el motor en marcha.

Recuerden, Tiffany había sido arrestada previamente por este mismo cargo en Georgia en enero de 2022. En ese momento, también la encontraron supuestamente dormida al volante después de haber fumado marihuana.

Tiffany pagó la fianza en ese caso, y ahora con el segundo presunto DUI, los fiscales de Georgia están pidiéndole al tribunal que cambie sus condiciones de fianza para añadir una restricción sobre los narcóticos y el alcohol y exigir pruebas semanales para ambos.

El juez aún no se ha pronunciado.
