V Tech Player Kicked Off Team for DUI

August 19th, 2008 · No Comments

A projected starter for the Virginia Tech Hokies has been suspended from the team indefinitely after being arrested for Driving Under the Influence.  Police pulled Zach Luckett over at approximately 1 am after he backed his vehicle into a dumpster in a store parking lot and then proceeded to drive off without checking for damage.

According to the team’s coach, he was suspended because his arrest violated team policy.  After taking a breathalyzer test, Luckett blew a .16 which is twice the legal limit.

Because this is his second DUI charge in less than five years, he must pay a $500 fine and spend at least one month in jail.  Luckett also faces an additional year in  prison.

If you have been arrested for a DUI, contact Rhode Island DUI defense attorney James C. Powderly at 401.662.9006 to discuss your case and further legal options.
