Bodycam of Tiger Woods arrest shows golfer being handcuffed

Body camera footage of Tiger Woods' arrest has been released, less than a week after the golf icon was taken into custody following a car crash in Florida and charged with driving under the influence . The video shows Woods being handcuffed after failing a sobriety test. The Martin County Sheriff's Office, which responded to the collision, shared video of the arrest on Thursday.

It shed more light on the incident that deputies recounted in an affidavit  detailing Woods' demeanor as he interacted with officers and attempted, only partially correctly, to complete a series of sobriety exercises. In the body camera  video , Woods told deputies that he had been checking his phone while driving and hit the car in front of him. "I looked down at my phone and all of a sudden, boom," Woods said.

No one was injured. Woods, 50, had to climb out of the passenger's side door of his Land Rover in the wake of the March 27 crash on Jupiter Island, because the car had flipped onto its side after clipping the trailer attached to a pickup truck driving in front of him, according to the arrest report. Deputies observed the athlete "sweating profusely," with glassy and bloodshot eyes that he initially concealed behind a pair of sunglasses.

In the report, they said Woods was driving behind the truck and failed to notice when it slowed down in front of him to turn into a driveway. His SUV then swerved over the double lines running down the center of the street and struck the trailer before rolling over. Woods told deputies that he had not consumed alcohol that day but had taken "a few" prescription medications, the names of which were redacted from the arrest report.
