Keenan Allen, a six-time Pro Bowl wide receiver for the Indianapolis Colts, has been formally charged with two misdemeanor offenses related to alleged drunken driving on August 30. The charges include operating a vehicle with an alcohol concentration of 0.15 or higher and operating while intoxicated. Police observed signs of intoxication during a traffic stop when Allen was found parked in a no-parking zone around 1 AM, leading to his arrest. Colts coach Shane Steichen did not comment on the incident, which occurred before Allen's first season with the team.

Story summary
Keenan Allen, a six-time Pro Bowl wide receiver for the Indianapolis Colts, was arrested on August 30 after being pulled over at around 1 a.m. in Indianapolis for parking his white Nissan in a no-parking zone. During questioning by Indianapolis Metropolitan Police Department officers, Allen exhibited multiple signs of intoxication: extremely slurred speech and glossy eyes, a strong odor of alcohol on his breath, dry mouth with saliva pooling in the corners, and consistent lip licking. He registered a blood alcohol level of .224 on a portable breath test—nearly three times the legal limit of .08—and performed poorly on field sobriety tests.
Allen was formally charged on Tuesday with two misdemeanor counts: operating a vehicle while intoxicated (OVWI) and operating a vehicle with an alcohol concentration equivalent to 0.15 or more. He posted $500 cash bond, avoiding an initial hearing that had been scheduled for Wednesday; an attorney conference is now set for October 26. Colts coach Shane Steichen declined to comment on the incident before practice, where Allen was expected to participate despite the arrest.

Why this leaning score
This article does not take a side on a contested political
question, so it has no leaning score. That is an
answer rather than a gap: a match report or a rescue can be warmly
or critically written without being left or right, and scoring it
anyway is how approval of a subject gets recorded as a political
position.
