UPDATED: In a post on Twitter, Buff Bagwell explained that his recent stay in jail over a DUI wasn’t due to a new charge. He said that he was serving time for a prior arrest and is currently eleven months sober.

He wrote: “Just wanted to clarify to everyone that I am 11 months sober (tomorrow). I see there is news out that I had to spend time in jail for a DUI but this was from the original offense years ago. I did get a recent sanction because I didn’t document a recent trip out of state properly.

Original: Police records from Cobb County, Georgia reveal that Buff Bagwell was arrested earlier this month on a DUI charge. Specifically, he was arrested on July 13 at 1:30 PM for driving under the influence of drugs. He was sentenced with no bond, then got released on July 15. The DUI charge was a misdemeanor. He also charged with speeding, another misdemeanor.

Bagwell has had struggled with substance abuse in the past, even announcing back in June that he was nine months sober.
