Olympic gold medalist Mary Lou Retton allegedly had a screw-top bottle of wine with her inside her Porsche when she was arrested for driving under the influence in West Virginia this month , according to a report.
Authorities found the vino in the passenger seat of the former star gymnast’s car when they pulled her over on May 17 after she was spotted driving “all over the roadway,” according to court documents obtained by WDTV this week.
The 57-year-old also reeked of booze and was slurring her words during the traffic stop, the docs alleged.
Retton was arrested in Marion County and is facing a misdemeanor charge of DUI.
The ex-athlete shot to stardom when she won five medals during the 1984 Olympics, including a gold in the all-around competition.
