“#Johnny Damon struggles with police during Florida DUI bust<\/strong>”
\n<\/p>\n

\n

Bodycam footage of Johnny Damon\u2019s Florida DUI bust was released Tuesday, showing the former MLB outfielder and his wife struggling with police after they were pulled over. <\/p>\n

At one point in the nearly two-hours of footage released by<\/a> the Windermere Police Department, the couple scuffles with an officer who tried to grab Damon\u2019s wife, Michelle Manga<\/a>n-Damon, as she disobeyed commands to stay in the SUV.<\/p>\n

\u201cDon\u2019t touch me,\u201d Mangan-Damon tells the cop during the tense encounter. \u201cDon\u2019t f\u2014ing touch me,\u201d she says, before breaking free and walking away. <\/p>\n

Shortly after, another struggle between Damon and an officer ensues, knocking the cop\u2019s bodycam to the ground.<\/p>\n

\u201cStop trying to pull away from me,\u201d the officer tells Damon, who denies he is. <\/p>\n

Damon, 47, was pulled over Feb. 18 after police spotted his SUV swerving and hitting a curb.<\/p>\n

The former Yankees and Red Sox player reportedly had a blood alcohol level between .294 and .300 \u2014 nearly four times the state limit of .08.<\/p>\n

He was charged with DUI, and his wife was charged with battery on a law enforcement officer and resisting an officer with violence, according to clickorlando.com<\/a>. <\/p>\n

During his arrest, Damon said he is pro-police, according to the bodycam footage. <\/p>\n

\u201cBelieve me, I am Blue Lives Matter,\u201d Damon said. \u201cWhat are you doing right now? We are all for cops. Guys, we are all for cops.\u201d<\/p>\n

He also brought up his politics. <\/p>\n

\u201cHey bro, I\u2019m a good guy and I know people are trying to target me because I\u2019m a Trump supporter,\u201d Damon said.<\/p>\n

During his field sobriety test, Damon app<\/a>eared unsteady on his feet. He repeatedly said: \u201cYeah, I\u2019m good bro,\u201d according to the video. <\/p>\n

Damon played 18 seasons in the big leagues, spending most of his career with the Royals, Red Sox and Yankees. He was a two-time All-Star and two-time World Series<\/a> champion, winning a title with the Yankees in 2009 and Red Sox in 2004.\n <\/p><\/div>\n
