[size=+1]Chile's Arturo Vidal 'arrested for drunk driving' after car crash[/size]
Chile midfielder Arturo Vidal was involved in a car crash on Tuesday and was taken to hospital with light injuries, local media reported.
Chilean state television showed pictures of Vidal's badly damaged red Ferrari and said the player had crashed his car just south of Santiago.
Police said he had been arrested for drunk driving following the crash on the outskirts of the city. He had suffered only "minor injuries", according to reports.
"Because he was driving under the influence of alcohol...(Vidal) is being held," said local Police chief Ricardo Gonzalez.
According to a report from AFP, Gonzalez refused to speak about how much alcohol was in the Juventus player's system.
Vidal, like the rest of the Chilean squad, had the afternoon off following their 3-3 draw with Mexico in the Copa America on Monday.
"Unfortunately I found myself involved in a traffic accident," he tweeted. "Luckily we are all well and quiet . Thanks x worry!"
Vidal scored twice in the Mexico match and is the leading scorer in the tournament with three goals.
Chile meet Bolivia in their final group match on Friday. Vidal scored the winner from the penalty spot in Chile's opening group match against Ecuador.
Vidal was expelled from a Chile training camp in 2011 after turning up late and was handed a 100,000 Euro fine by Italian champions Juventus earlier this season after apparently being involved in a brawl outside of a Turin nightclub.

Do you want me to point out the irony?

Are you seriously trying to compare driving under the influence, setting yours and everyone else on the road's life in danger to Suarez' biting?
Cant compare Suarez to the things Vidal do. Suarez has had some episodes where in the heat of the moment for a split second he does something stupid. But DUI??? Or having deserved 5 yellow cards in one half of a match? These Vidal episodes show something profoundly different. A completely careless attitude even when getting the time to think about things.

That's an opinion
So the talks about Suarez not fiting the Barca motto "mes que un club" were also just football talk?
Spare me the bs please.
