Transcript Staff

Dusty Dvoracek, former OU Sooner and current defensive tackle for the Chicago Bears, was arrested Saturday morning at the bar Seven47, 747 Asp Ave., on Campus Corner.

Dvoracek, 26, was charged with public intoxication, assault and battery and interfering with an official process, said Tiffany Wilkerson, detention specialist at the Cleveland County Detention Center.

Wilkerson said Dvoracek was admitted to the jail at 1:40 a.m. and released at 1:45 a.m.

Dvoracek, who was suspended from the Sooners in 2004 after an assault allegation, has ended each year of his professional football career on injured reserve. After tearing his ACL during preseason, he missed the entire 2009 campaign.

He has played in only 13 games during his four years with the Bears.
