Al and Bobby Unser arrested
Unser Brothers, Al & Bobby Arrested For Ignoring Deputy

http://www.postchronicle.com/news/original/article_21233603.shtml

Indy racing legends, the Unser brothers were arrested yesterday in Albuquerque, N.M. , after sheriff's deputies said Al Unser Sr. and Bobby Unser ignored orders to leave an area where authorities had cornered a carjacking suspect.

The Bernalillo County sheriff's department said the suspect led police on a high-speed pursuit while shooting at them Wednesday morning. The man reportedly crashed into a car on the city's west side shortly after and then shot himself.

During the standoff, authorities had to block off the road named after the Unser family.

1. Odd story...it doesn't say what time Wednesday morning.
If 1:00 or 2:00 am, sounds like maybe alcohol-involved.

No offense meant.
