Freshly unveiled bodycam video shows Tiger Woods moments after he was involved in a car crash near his Florida home. Woods crashed his SUV last Friday in a two-vehicle rollover on a street near his Jupiter estate. Woods was driving north in his Range Rover Sport on the two-lane road around 2 p.m. ET when the accident happened, the Irish Star reports.

🚨 BREAKING: Martin County Sheriff’s Office just released the full bodycam footage from Tiger Woods’ latest crash.

Woods failed the field sobriety test and was found with two prescription hydrocodone pills in his pocket.

According to Palm Beach County Sheriff John Budensiek, “He was driving too fast for the other driver to get completely off the roadway,” Budensiek said at a news conference. When Tiger Woods tried to swerve around him, he hit the trailer, which flipped his SUV onto its side.

Following the accident, Tiger Woods climbed out of the driver’s side through the passenger door. Responders arrived at the scene shortly after and had him perform a field sobriety test at the roadside. Video from a deputy’s body camera showed Woods explaining how his vehicle rolled over while he sat down in the grass. “I looked down at my phone, and all of a sudden, ‘Boom,’” he said.

Then an officer put gloves on and began to feel him for injuries. “I’m just going to take a look at it,” the officer said as he placed his other hand on Tiger Woods’. Woods was then checked briefly and the officer responded to another officer: “He’s cool, I just wanted to see if he had anything on his back. I didn’t feel anything.”

Tiger Woods told officers he was fine, saying, “Yeah, I’m cool. I’m totally cool. I don’t feel anything abnormal.” But the officer responded, “Yes sir, the medic is going to look at you anyway.”

“We’re still going to have our medic come and check you out, alright?” he said. Once out of Woods’ earshot, the officer turned to a nearby witness and asked, “Who hit him?” The person replied, “He hit the trailer. I don’t know.”

Another individual—believed to be the pickup truck driver—included their account, saying, “So he kept coming. And I tried to like pull into this driveway.”

“I was getting ready to turn in. He was coming fast. I don’t think he was looking, that’s the thing,” the driver added. He also confirmed he was not injured, saying, “Yeah I’m fine, it hit the trailer. I don’t know if I gotta take this tire – I don’t even know if I can drive it out of here.”

Tiger Woods  is shown interacting with officers and undergoing field sobriety testing in newly released footage from the Martin County Sheriff’s Office, which was shared by local outlet WPBF on Thursday, April 2.

As he is placed in handcuffs, Tiger Woods can be heard asking, “I’m being arrested?” An officer responds, “At this time, I do believe your normal faculties are impaired.” In the video, Woods tells officers he does not have anything on him that could harm them and denies carrying any weapons or drugs while they conduct a search, People Magazine reports.

Officers are seen removing cash from his pockets as well as his AirPods, a pack of nicotine-free “focus pouches” and two opioid pills.

Tiger Woods was then driven to the Los Angeles Police Department station nearby where he was cited for three misdemeanors: DUI, property damage and refusing to provide a urine sample. Woods spent at least eight hours in custody until posting bail and going home.
