Police To Get Warrant For Tiger Woods' Medical Records
Posted on Mon Nov 30th, 2009 8:10am PDT By X17 Staff
Since Tiger ain't talking, the Florida Highway Patrol is seeking a warrant for Woods' medical records to determine exactly what caused his injuries.
After crashing into both a fire hydrant then a tree early Friday morning, Tiger was taken to a Ococee hospital and treated for lacerations on his face. Rumors that Woods' wife Elin Nordegren, who hit Tiger with a golf club over reports of an affair, was the one responsible for the cuts, not the crash, surfaced soon after. As we reported over the weekend, Nordegren may face charges of domestic violence and spousal abuse, even if Tiger doesn't press charges.
The FHP has made numerous attempts to get the real story of what went down outside the couples' Isleworth house, but have been turned away three times.
TMZ reports that the cops are looking for probable cause, which they may be able to prove in two different ways. One -- Nordegren changed her story to the FHP, first saying she walked out of her house, saw the crash, went back inside to get the golf club and smashed the window to get her husband out, later saying that she went looking for Tiger in a golf cart (pictured below.) Two -- although cops say alcohol wasn't involved, if they find traces of the prescription pain medication Tiger was taking, he could be charged with a DUI.
Woods has obtained the services of Orlando attorney Mark NeJame. Although he's put out a vague statement on his website, he's still yet to reveal the real cause behind the crash.
