Mike Tyson, former boxing star, recently told of how he avoiding being arrested for a DUI because the arresting officers were impressed by his fame. He was pulled over while high on cocaine. Though he anticipated big trouble when he saw the police car attempting to pull him over, Tyson was greeted by the grins a couple of boxing fans.
In typical form, Tyson pushed the envelope. He asked the star-stricken officers for a ride—to his drug dealer’s house. Without question, the star-struck officers of the law escorted Mike Tyson to the address he gave them. He didn’t even have his driver’s license, but the police didn’t ask him for identification, anyway.
When the people at the drug house saw Tyson being led in by two police officers, they ran. The officers instructed them to assure Tyson was taken safely home, but he actually ended up walking quite a distance because the presence of police caused everyone else at the house to flee.
