Toth got pulled over for drunk driving and Witherspoon, who was in the passenger seat, became angered by the police arresting her husband. She got out of the car after being asked not to and eventually got arrested for disorderly conduct. According to police reports, Toth was weaving across a double line, he appeared disheveled and smelled of alcohol. After taking a sobriety test, Toth blew a .139. The limit in Georgia is .08. The couple was released in bonds after a few hours of incarceration and they are awaiting a pending court date.
