Los Angeles: Portland Timbers captain Liam Ridgewell has been arrested for drink-driving after rushing to the aid of goalkeeper Jake Gleeson following a late-night car crash, reports said on Tuesday.

Both players had refused to be breathalyzed. Ridgewell, 32, and Gleeson, 26, were booked for driving under the influence of intoxicants and ordered to appear in court on November 16. Gleeson was also charged with reckless driving and reckless endangerment.
