New York Post • • sports
Key Points:
- Former Dallas Cowboys quarterback Tony Romo was cited for refusing to take a test for intoxication after his arrest in Milwaukee on July 23, according to court records.
- Romo was pulled over shortly after playing in the Wisconsin Amateur Championship golf tournament and was charged with operating while intoxicated, first offense, following poor performance on field sobriety tests.
- The Milwaukee County District Attorney’s office classified the case as a traffic violation rather than a criminal charge, with Romo’s court date set for September 21.
- Romo has not publicly commented on the arrest and recently withdrew from a scheduled golf event, the M&P Group Texas State Open.
- It remains unclear if CBS, where Romo works as a broadcaster under a $180 million contract, will take any disciplinary action in response to the incident.
