VIDEO: Police release dash cam footage from Jim Irsay arrest
Dash cam footage from jim Irsay's arrest has been released. (USATSI)Authorities in Indiana have released the dash cam footage that was taken the night Indianapolis Colts owner Jim Irsay was pulled over and arrested in March.
Following the March 16 arrest, Irsay was set to face charges of operating a vehicle while intoxicated and four felony counts of possession of a controlled substance. However, those charges were later reduced to operating a vehicle while intoxicated and operating a vehicle with a controlled substance in the body, both misdemeanors.
Irsay eventually pleaded guilty to to one misdemeanor charge of operating a vehicle while intoxicated. The guilty plea came Sept. 2. Hours later, the NFL announced that Irsay would be suspended for the first six games of the season. Irsay was also fined $500,000.
Irsay returned from his suspension on Oct. 10.
In his first public interview since his suspension ended, the Colts owner said Wednesday that he's moving forward.
'I've really taken it a day at a time, and I've really looked forward to moving forward and doing well,' Irsay said. 'I've always said I've felt the role of a steward here, a la (former Chiefs owner) Lamar Hunt. He talked about stewardship versus ownership. I take that seriously. You learn from your mistakes and you move forward and I think you can be a better person and better at everything in life and what you do. So I do feel like I'm moving forward.'
