Bruce Springsteen acted like “The Boss” during his DWI bust — by allegedly refusing to take a breathalyzer, a source told Page Six on Thursday.
More details have emerged in Springsteen’s Nov. 14 arrest at Gateway National Recreation Area in Sandy Hook, New Jersey, when he was allegedly spotted by a park officer taking a shot of tequila with fans.
“The incident escalated because once the officer approached Bruce on his motorcycle he refused to take a breathalyzer test,” a source close to Springsteen said. “The cop got pissed off, took Bruce in, and made him do bloodwork.”
The “Born to Run” rocker’s blood-alcohol content was reportedly 0.02 — below New Jersey’s legal limit while driving of .08.
Park ranger R.L. Hayes said he spotted the 71-year-old legend downing a shot of Patron before getting on his motorcycle to “start the engine,” Fox News reported, citing a probable cause affidavit.
Springsteen then refused a breathalyzer test “despite signs of intoxication namely after testing his gaze and walk and turn tests.”
