Raiders player Charles Snowden facing misdemeanor DUI charge after Las Vegas arrest

Las Vegas officers found Raiders football player Charles Snowden “passed out” behind the wheel of a Jeep Cherokee, its engine running as it balanced atop a retaining wall, before his arrest on a misdemeanor charge of driving under the influence of alcohol, according to a police report. Blood tests showed Snowden's blood-alcohol content was about .19%, or more than twice the legal limit, according to a report by a police forensic scientist. The NFL, the Raiders and Snowden's attorneys acknowledged Thursday the 26-year-old first-year defensive end was arrested early Tuesday after Las Vegas police responded shortly before midnight Monday to a report of a “suspicious” vehicle near a busy intersection southwest of the Las Vegas Strip.
