Green Bay Packer Charged with California DUI

Spencer Havner crashes motorcycle and ends up in hospital

Spencer Havner, who plays linebacker and tight end positions for the Green Bay Packers, has been charged with drunk driving in California after crashing his motorcycle. Havner reportedly lost control of his 2007 Kawasaki around 2:45 Monday morning, at the end of a cul-de-sac. He suffered a broken shoulder blade, lacerations to the back of his head and left arm, and multiple abrasions. Havner was not wearing a helmet at the time of the accident.

Havner was taken to a hospital before police responded to the scene. When it was determined that he was under the influence, California Highway Patrol placed him under arrest for CA DUI.

The incident took place in Grass Valley, Havner’s hometown about 55 miles north of Sacramento. Havner, 27, secured a spot on the Packers roster in 2008 and he caught a game tying pass in the NFC wildcard playoff game last January. A free agent this year, the Packers had extended Havner a one year offer two weeks ago.
