33-year-old MMA Fighter Shane Vincent Tuohy had a single-vehicle accident on I-24 West near Mile Marker 61.0 on April 8th. When officers arrived, they noticed Tuohy was unsteady and had to be seated on the curb for safety. He told officers that he had passed out and did not realize that he had struck a guardrail until he regained consciousness. Tuohy added that he believed he suffered a stroke. During an inventory vehicle search, officers located three empty Michelob Ultra 24 oz cans behind the passenger seat. Tuohy took a sobriety test in the back of the ambulance and showed signs of impairment. Then, officers transported him to Nashville General Hospital and Mirandized him, where he admitted to having 6 pints of Miller Lite from 6:00 p.m. to 1:00 a.m. Tuohy then agreed to provide a blood sample. Tuohy was booked on the citation of driving under the influence and insufficient evidence of compliance on April 19th.
