Tony Stewart got a tad rowdy in Australia this week it seems. So rowdy, that the local law enforcement dudes detained his ass. Seems Tony went off on one of the track owners regarding various issues, including track conditions. From the SBNation link:
The site SpeedCafe said Stewart, who has been racing in Australia during NASCAR's offseason, may have been upset about the track conditions and confronted speedway co-owner Brett Morris.
The report says "a helmet and punches were rumored to be thrown and exchanged during the alleged altercation" and that police are involved in the investigation:
Staff at Parramatta Police Station confirmed to Speedcafe.com.au this morning at 12.49am (AEDST) that Stewart was being held for questioning, but indicated that nothing could be confirmed about the incident until later today –including whether Stewart had been officially charged or whether similar charges were being pursued by Stewart against Morris.
"We're attempting to gather whatever information we can get our hands on in an effort to separate fact from fiction," Stewart's public relations representative Mike Arning told SB Nation via e-mail Saturday. "However, we can say that Tony Stewart is not being held anywhere and is resting in his hotel in Australia.
This wouldn't be the first time Tony has hauled off and cold-cocked a track official or an owner. See the video below of a...cough..altercation in 2008. Gotta love him, I know I do!
