Johnny Manziel’s Mom
Failed Field Sobriety Test, Refused Breathalyzer
… Before DWI Arrest
Published
Johnny Manziel‘s mom refused to take a Breathalyzer and failed a field sobriety test just before she was thrown behind bars last week for DWI … law enforcement sources tell TMZ Sports.
Michelle Manziel‘s run-in with cops took place in Kerrville, Texas at around 10 PM on March 1 … after we’re told Kerrville Police Department officers noticed she was driving with a busted tail light.
During an ensuing traffic stop, our sources say Michelle showed signs of intoxication … including blood shot, glassy eyes and unsteady balance. They also claim Manziel’s mother had a strong odor of booze emanating from her breath.
We’re told Michelle refused to take an intoxilyzer test … and when authorities administered the horizontal gaze nystagmus check, she showed six clues of inebriation.
The 55-year-old was taken to a nearby jail, booked on a DWI charge … and later released on $7,500 bail.
Michelle’s attorney told us Friday morning they have no comment on the matter.

Johnny, meanwhile, has not kept a low-profile in the wake of his mom’s arrest … he was just seen at a Texas A&M men’s basketball game laughing it up with Mike Evans.

He has not, though, commented publicly on the situation … but he’s certainly no stranger to issues stemming from substance consumption — recently revealing he once lost 40 pounds due to his affinity for cocaine.
