Overview
- Police stopped Romo on July 23 on Interstate 43 in Milwaukee after he played in the Wisconsin Amateur and the arrest report says he performed poorly on field sobriety tests before being booked and released the same night.
- Court records reported this week show Romo was issued a citation for refusing a chemical or intoxication test after his arrest.
- Milwaukee County prosecutors say the matter is being treated as a civil operating-while-intoxicated traffic violation under Wisconsin law rather than a criminal charge.
- Romo withdrew from the M&P Group Texas State Open after the incident and has not made a public statement while CBS has declined to comment and sources say his on-air role remains unchanged for now.
- Next steps include possible administrative action over the refusal that could threaten his driving privileges and a Sept. 21 court date that will be the first formal milestone in resolving the case.
