VILLA HILLS, Ky. (WXIX) - Former Cincinnati Bengals linebacker Rey Maualuga was arrested Wednesday for driving while intoxicated and other charges, according to the police report.

Maualuga, a 2009 second round pick of the Bengals, drove through multiple yards and ran over mailboxes in the 1000 block of Riverview Farms Place around 9 p.m. before hitting a parked car.

The ex-Bengal hit the parked car so hard that part of his Mercedes went underneath of it and wedged it between a tree, police said.

When the officer arrived, the report said he saw Maualuga walking around the driveway.

Maualuga “was telling people he was sorry, mentioned he had screwed up, and that he was he’s already had multiple DUIs and this one would potentially put him in jail for a long time,” the report reads.

Maualuga told the officer he only had a few drinks but refused to take a breath alcohol test.

According to the report, Maualuga’s friend told police he must have taken the Mercedes because it did not have an ignition interlock device.

An ignition interlock device is a breath-test device connected to a vehicle’s ignition. The car won’t start unless the driver blows into the device and has a BAC below a pre-set limit, according to the CDC.

He was arrested for operating a vehicle while under the influence of alcohol and criminal mischief, according to the report.

Wednesday is Maualuga’s latest run-in with Kentucky police.

In July of 2020, he was arrested for intoxicated and reckless driving, also in Villa Hills.
