‘Blindside’ Inspiration Michael Oher Arrested After Allegedly Beating Up Uber Driver
NFL lineman Michael Oher allegedly roughed up an Uber driver after a disagreement about directions.
The alleged incident took place back on April 14 when Oher and friends were headed to dinner in downtown Nashville. The driver says an argument took place after Oher insinuated that he didn't know where he was going.
The driver admits to putting "his hands toward Oher's face" when Oher allegedly pushed him to the ground and kicked him in the leg.
Oher currently plays for the Carolina Panthers, but throughout his NFL career with numerous teams has always been known most for being the inspiration behind the movie "The Blind Side."
According to TMZ, Oher is due in court next month.
