Miguel Cabrera Reportedly Threatened To 'Kill All Of You' In Florida Restaurant Before DUI Arrest

More details about Detroit Tigers first baseman Miguel Cabrera's DUI arrest have been revealed, the Detroit Free Press reported on Wednesday.

According to the 41-page police report, Cabrera allegedly threatened the manager of a steakhouse and an off-duty wildlife officer shortly before the arrest.

The manager and officer told police that Cabrera, the Detroit Tigers' All-Star first baseman, smelled of alcohol, insinuated that he had a gun in a shoulder bag and said, "I know all of you, and I will kill all of you and blow this place up."

Cabrera was said to have entered Cowboys Bar-B-Q & Steak Co. around 10:15 p.m. After the manager reportedly told him that they were closing, Cabrera "leaned near" the manager's face and told him, "I will kill you." He left the restaurant 10 minutes later.

During the arrest, Cabrera reportedly told police to shoot him.

Cabrera, his attorney and the Tigers have not commented on the report.

The 27-year-old was arrested on Feb. 16 in Florida for suspicion of driving under the influence and two counts of resisting an officer without violence.

Cabrera is lucky he didn't get beaten down, tased, or worse.

We pay all these athletes too much money. They all think they are Gods and are above the law. Lame a**holes.

I wonder if he is going to boycott the All Star Game in Arizona?

Perhaps, better, the All Star Game ought to boycott him...

I guess he relapsed into alcoholism.  Very sad.  Alcoholism has shortened or ruined many athletes careers.  I hope he gets back into rehab.

MLB needs to take a hard line stance like the NFL does in cases like this. If this was in the NFL he would be suspended for a minimum of probally 4 games. But MLB seems to look the other way with its players.

And I don't like nobody touching my stuff, so just keep your meat hooks off , if I catch any of you guys in my stuff I'll kill you. Also I don't like nobody touching me, any of you homo's touch me and I'll kill you.

It is always nice to have that killer instinct in your baseball game but when you take the crazy off the field and start threatening people at a steak house, then you need some help. I’m thinking that baseball should be the least of his worries now. Since he has had trouble and treatment in the past, MLB should suggest an inpatient program this time. It would be for his own good.

And why is this guy still allowed to play baseball. Great example for the kids. Tigers do the right thing and dump him.

You obviously don't know much about the history of MLB. Solid citizenship has never been a requirement.

You are talking about a league that let people like Ty Cobb And Barry Bonds play. Ain't gonna happen.

There's already been a Major League 3, yet everyone seems to have forgotten. (rightly so, as it was horrible)
