ANDOVER, Mass. (AP) Former Boston Bruins star Ray Bourque, who’s facing a drunken driving charge, says he accepts the responsibility of his actions.
Bourque was charged Friday night with operating under the influence of alcohol and following too closely. He posted bail and was released.
”For the first time in my life, I find myself in unfamiliar territory,” Bourque said in a statement released Sunday. ”I am not happy about the situation I put myself into.”
Andover Police Chief Patrick Keefe said the 55-year-old Bourque was arrested about 11:30 p.m. after his Mercedes-Benz rear-ended a minivan in a construction zone in the city. No injuries were reported.
Bourque is to be arraigned in Lawrence District Court. Police haven’t provided a date.
According to The Boston Globe, Bourque currently owns Tresca, a restaurant on Boston’s North End.
