Worley Fights Cops Harder than Defensive Players

Ex-Steeler Tim Worley Tasered by police
Former University of Georgia running back Tim Worley was zapped with a Taser and arrested Sunday on a drunk driving charge in Smyrna, said Lt. Robert Harvey, a department spokesman.

Harvey said police saw a black Ford Expedition speeding and weaving on Spring Road, near Campbell Road, at 3:15 a.m.

When police stopped the SUV, "Worley became combative with the arresting officer and after a brief altercation Worley was Tasered," Harvey said in a press release.

Police took Worley, 41, into custody without further problems. Neither Worley nor the officers were injured, Harvey said.

In addition to drunk driving, Worley was charged with speeding, failure to maintain lane, driving with a suspended license and no proof of insurance.
