Sacramento Kings point guard Ty Lawson is still on probation from his 2015 drunk driving case. Lawson has broken that probation, reports TMZ:
Ty Lawson has some serious explaining to do … because officials in Denver believe the Sacramento Kings star violated his probation and are gunning for a warrant, TMZ Sports has learned.
Lawson is currently on probation stemming from his 2015 drunk driving case in Denver — but the Denver Probation Dept. has filed a complaint seeking to revoke his probation citing a potential violation.
Officials would not say what the alleged violation is … but confirmed to TMZ Sports that a bench warrant has been requested so they can bring Lawson to court for a hearing on the matter.
We’re told a judge has not signed off on the warrant at this point.
Some of the requirements of Lawson’s probation — which was scheduled to end on March 22 — included monitored sobriety, 48 hours of community service, 52 hours of therapy and no marijuana use.
TMZ also reports that Lawson violated his probation by testing positive for alcohol three time since September.
Ty Lawson broke the terms of his probation by testing positive for alcohol THREE TIMES over the past 7 months … this according to court docs obtained by TMZ Sports.
As we previously reported, the Sacramento Kings star is on probation stemming from his 2015 drunk driving case in Denver … and part of the terms required Lawson to stay completely sober and submit to alcohol testing.
But officials say Lawson tested positive for booze on 9/27, 9/29 and 2/7. FYI, the Kings had the day off on 2/7 in between two home games.
If this report is true, that’s certainly unfortunate for Lawson; he made it so long without violating his probation only to do so a mere 15 days before it ended.
