Bill Murray says he drove golf cart drunk

STOCKHOLM, Sweden — Bill Murray could face a drunken-driving charge after cruising through downtown Stockholm in a golf cart and refusing to take a breath test, citing U.S. law.

Police officers spotted the "Caddyshack" star early Monday in the slow-moving vehicle and noticed he smelled of alcohol when they pulled him over, said Detective-Inspector Christer Holmlund.

"He refused to blow in the [breath test] instrument, citing American legislation," Holmlund said Wednesday. "So we applied the old method — a blood test. It will take 14 days before the results are in."

Murray, who had been at a golf tournament in Sweden, signed a document admitting that he was driving under the influence, and agreed to let a police officer plead guilty for him if the case goes to court.

"Then he was let go. My guess is he went back to America," Holmlund said.

He said Murray would be charged if tests show his blood alcohol level exceeded the legal limit, which is quite low in Sweden.
Jack -- be careful on the roads. :D

Well, the golf tournament is right outside Stockholm, so he would have had to drive 40 kilometres or so on the highway to reach downtown. Yeah, where did he get the cart from? Probably some practice fields nearby. :p
