Young Crows forward Tyson Stengle has been reported for a drink driving offence after being stopped by police in Adelaide’s south-western suburbs.
Stengle was initially asked to pull over for driving an unregistered vehicle and subsequently recorded a blood alcohol reading of 0.125.
Crows Head of Football Adam Kelly said these were serious breaches of the Club’s standards, as well as those of the broader community.
“Tyson is deeply remorseful and embarrassed by his actions, and we have expressed our disappointment in his decision making,” Kelly said.
“Fortunately, no one was hurt and he will receive appropriate education so he learns from this mistake.
“Tyson is a valued member of the Crows family and we will continue to support him through this difficult period.”
Aside from the police matters, Stengle faces Club-imposed sanctions which will be decided by senior management.
