Dave Matthews Band alum Boyd Tinsley is arrested for DUI just months after being sued for breaching clause in settled sexual harassment lawsuit
Boyd Tinsley was arrested for a DUI after allegedly crashing into another car on Monday.
The 60-year-old violinist, who is best known for having been a member of the Dave Matthews Band, was reportedly arrested around 9:30 p.m. on Monday in Rio, which is just northeast of his hometown of Charlottesville in Virginia.
According to a report by TMZ on Tuesday, sources from the local law enforcement claimed officers responded to reports of a two-vehicle accident but handcuffed him within 20 minutes as officers suspected he was driving under the influence at the time of the incident.
Eyewitnesses claimed that he was driving his Escalade when he allegedly collided with a Corvette.
Bystanders told the outlet that the two drivers both pulled over to assess the damage.

It was then that the other driver reportedly suspected Tinsley was under the influence and called the police.
Video footage obtained by the outlet showed the police with Tinsley on the scene and the other driver.
Arrest logs showed he was booked around 9:30 p.m. and was released an hour later after posting bond.
This comes just four months after the mandolinist was sued after he breached a mutual non-disparagement clause in a since-settled 2018 lawsuit.
Six years ago, his former Crystal Garden bandmate James Frost-Winn, a trumpeter he mentored, alleged Tinsley harassed him.
He sought $9 million in damages after claiming Tinsley allegedly behaved inappropriately and sexually harassed him.
Frost-Winn explained in the lawsuit that he was a street musician when he met Boyd in 2007 and was age 18 at the time.
The lawsuit accused Tinsley of 'ejaculating right next to' Frost-Winn while he slept, with the trumpet player waking up to Tinsley's hand on his buttocks.

Other allegations include inappropriate sexting where Tinsley told Frost-Winn that he 'owed him' for bringing him into the band and providing 'this life.'
Amid the allegations, the Dave Matthews Band announced that he was no longer with the group.
It was also reported at the time that he had already been 'taking a break' from the band for around three months.
Tinsley joined the Dave Matthews Band in 1992, two years after the group's inception.
He was featured on every single Dave Matthew's Band album from 1994's Under the Table and Dreaming to 2018's Come Tomorrow.
The band announced that he was no longer a member shortly after the 2018 lawsuit was filed in May 2018.
In response to Frost-Winn's initial complaint, Tinsley denied all allegations and said he intended to defend himself in court.
However, he ended up settling with Frost-Winn out-of-court the following year.
This comes just four months after he was sued for breaching the terms of a 2019 settlement stemming from a sexual harassment lawsuit — which resulted in the band removing him from the group.

This February, Tinsley was sued again for breaching a mutual non-disparagement clause in the settlement due to his social media activity.
According to Rolling Stone, Tinsley and Frost-Winn agreed to a $837,000 settlement payment.
Under the terms of the settlement, both parties were prevented from discussing the matter publicly and agreed to a penalty of $25,000 for each breach of the non-disparagement clause.
Frost-Winn's lawyers claimed in the new suit that Tinsley breached the clause on February 22, 2022 with a series of social media posts — pointing to 18 instances where he broke that clause for a total of $450,000.
At the time, screengrabs of Tinsley's posts submitted by Frost-Winn's lawyers and obtained by Rolling Stone claimed he wrote about the allegations on social media, calling them 'a total lie.'
'There is a pattern of me being victimized by mentally unstable and money-grabbing people. This latest individual that I am speaking of concocted this incredulous story of sexual harassment, which is a complete and total lie.'
Even though Tinsley did not mention Frost-Winn by name, he called his accuser 'a very troubled and disturbed person.'
The violinist also said that 'he had a field day spending my money... music went out the window and it was all about getting drunk and playing pinball.'
