NASHVILLE, Tenn. (AP) – Steve McNair’s case on drunken driving and weapons charges will go to a grand jury.
Judge Leon Ruben ruled Tuesday that there was sufficient evidence for the case against the Tennessee Titans’ quarterback to move forward. The grand jury could convene in four to five weeks, according to the district attorney’s office.
McNair, the NFL’s top-rated quarterback who has led the Titans to a 5-2 record, left with his lawyer after the hearing Tuesday and did not talk to reporters.
McNair was pulled over by police while driving a sport utility vehicle in Nashville just after midnight May 22.
According to police, McNair’s eyes were bloodshot, his breath smelled of alcohol and he acknowledged drinking.
”There was no doubt in my mind he was impaired and a dangerous driver,” Taylor testified during the preliminary hearing Tuesday.
