The DUI Incident

In the early hours on Sunday, it is alleged that Renaud was parked on a side of a street with hazard lights flashing, when police car pulled up behind. The police officer asked for the driver's license and administered a breathalyzer test, which Renaud failed. The police reports indicate that Renaud told the officers he had not been drinking. The teenager is now out on $40 bail. He pleaded not guilty to charges of drunk driving after being arraigned Tuesday. He was released on personal recognizance. Renaud was ordered by the judge to stay away from drugs and alcohol and placed on an overnight curfew from 8 PM to 7 AM.

Renaud's lawyer said his client is having a hard time dealing with the scrutiny.
