Former Dallas Cowboys quarterback Tony Romo was arrested overnight in Milwaukee on suspicion of operating while under the influence, according to the Milwaukee County Sheriff\u2019s Office.<\/p>\n

WISN 12 News obtained the arrest-detention report, which says Romo was stopped Thursday around 6 p.m. while traveling s<\/strong>outhbound on Interstate 43 and performed poorly on standard field sobriety tests. He was taken into custody for OWI book and released.<\/p>\n

In Wisconsin, a first-offense OWI is generally a civil offense, not a criminal charge. The citation typically carries a fine ranging from $150 to $300.<\/p>\n

Romo grew up in Burlington and graduated from Burlington High School. He was the first Burlington High School student-athlete to be named all-state in three sports: football, basketball, and golf.<\/p>\n

The Burlington Area School District named Tony Romo Field in February 2020. Romo returned in September 2022 for the field\u2019s official dedication during Burlington High School\u2019s homecoming<\/p>\n

Romo is a four-time Pro Bowler and is part of CBS\u2019 lead NFL broadcast team. <\/p>\n

The report says Romo was given a court date of Sept. 21.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Tony Romo arrested in Milwaukee on suspicion of operating under the influence Former Cowboys QB Tony Romo was…\n","protected":false},"author":3,"featured_media":956872,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":"","_share_on_mastodon":"0"},"categories":[10],"tags":[384921,1339,45633,384925,384910,384916,8998,384913,384914,384915,1318,384911,58975,384924,6375,5535,384908,384909,1232,384923,384912,384922,384917,384920,62,252082,69602,73351,384918,384926,67,132,68,1398,384919,238297],"class_list":["post-956871","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-sports","tag-arrest-detention-report","tag-basketball","tag-burlington","tag-burlington-area-school-district","tag-burlington-high-school","tag-cbs-nfl","tag-dallas-cowboys","tag-driving-under-influence","tag-first-offense-dui","tag-first-offense-owi","tag-football","tag-former-cowboys","tag-influence","tag-lead-nfl-broadcast-team","tag-milwaukee","tag-milwaukee-county","tag-milwaukee-county-jail","tag-milwaukee-county-sheriff","tag-nfl","tag-official-dedication","tag-operating-while-intoxicated","tag-owi","tag-pro-bowler","tag-romo","tag-sports","tag-suspected-dui","tag-suspicion","tag-tony-romo","tag-tony-romo-arrest","tag-travelingsouthbound","tag-united-states","tag-unitedstates","tag-us","tag-wisconsin","tag-wisconsin-dui","tag-wisn"],"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"","error":"Validation failed: Text character limit of 500 exceeded"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/956871","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/3"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=956871"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/956871\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/956872"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=956871"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=956871"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=956871"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
