Hulk Hogan’s Son Arrested

On Wednesday, Hulk Hogan’s son, Nick Bollea, turned himself in to authorities on charges that came from a street-racing crash that seriously injured a passenger in his car. He is being charged with reckless driving involving serious bodily injury. He is also being cited for using a motor vehicle in commission with a felony, being a driver under 21 years of age while operating a vehicle with a breath-alcohol level of 0.2 percent or higher, and having illegal window tinting. His blood-alcohol level was 0.055 when his blood was drawn two hours after the accident. He arrived at the Pinellas County Jail handcuffed with two police officers. He posted $10,000 bond and was seen leaving with his father and mother.

This summer, Nick was racing his father’s 1998 Toyota Supra against a Dodge Viper that was being driven by a friend. The car Nick was driving hit a curb and the car spun across two lanes of traffic and slammed rear-end first into a palm tree. His passenger, John Graziano, was not wearing a seat belt and was seriously injured. He suffered a broken skull and has been comatose at the Bayfront Medical Center.
