Former pro wrestler charged with DUI
WESLEY CHAPEL -- The black Honda was stopped about 10:30 a.m. Sunday by an off-duty police officer.
When a Florida Highway Patrol trooper arrived, according to a report, the driver got out of the car and was unsteady on his feet and shaking. His eyes were bloodshot.
The driver was Andrew J. Martin, better known to professional wrestling fans as "Test." Born in Canada, he has a listed address on Channelside Walkway in Tampa.
According to the report, Martin, 33, failed several field sobriety tests -- including standing on one leg and stepping heel-to-toe -- and was arrested on charges of driving under the influence and driving with a suspended license.
He repeatedly fell asleep in the trooper's patrol car, the report says.
He was released from the Pasco County jail about 8 p.m. Sunday after posting $500 bail.
According to the Associated Press, Martin debuted in 1998 in the World Wrestling Federation and also performed with World Wrestling Entertainment.
