Nathan was given and failed a series of field sobriety tests, which included horizontal gaze nystagmus, walk and turn, and one-leg stand. However, he refused to take a breathalyzer test. “He was impaired,” the officer said. According to the officer, "empty alcohol containers were found in the car," and "no drugs were found at the scene.”
Radar confirmed from the Wake County Sheriff’s Department that he is out on bond.
Nathan shares his son, Kaiser, 5, with his ex-fiance, Jenelle. The past few months haven't been easy for Nathan and his family.
He gained custody of Kaiser after Jenelle's husband, David Eason, shot and killed their family dog in April 2019. Nathan was fighting for full custody, but in early July 2019, Jenelle regained custody of her children.
After Jenelle regained custody, Nathan released a statement. "I've calm down a bit and just relying on my faith at this moment," he tweeted. At the time, he also shared an online complaint form, along with the judge's name that gave Jenelle custody of the 5-year-old again. He added, "#TeamGriffith."
