Genius at work: Vick guilty of drunken driving Vick guilty of drunken driving
NORFOLK, Va. — Former Virginia Tech quarterback Marcus Vick has pleaded guilty to drunken driving and other charges. Norfolk Commonwealth's Attorney spokeswoman Amanda Howie says Vick also was convicted Monday of eluding police and driving on the wrong side of the road. The 24-year-old brother of former Atlanta Falcons quarterback Michael Vick was arrested in June after fleeing an officer who saw him involved in a dispute with a woman. A Norfolk judge suspended a 12-month jail sentence on the DUI charge, but Marcus Vick must pay fines and lose his license for a year. A message seeking comment was left with Vick's attorney. Vick was dropped from the Virginia Tech team in 2006 after problems on and off the field. The Miami Dolphins released him a year later. ___ | |
