LONDON (AP) " England rugby flyhalf Danny Cipriani was found guilty of drunk-driving on Friday and disqualified from driving for 18 months. Cipriani played for an England XV against the Barbarians at Twickenham on May 31 last year, and went out celebrating with other players. He was also fined 4,500 pounds ($6,200) and ordered to pay 3,120 pounds ($4,300) in costs following a trial at Westminster Magistrates' Court. A breathalyzer revealed he had 67 micrograms of alcohol in 100 milliliters of breath, twice the legal limit. The following morning, he crashed his Mercedes into a taxi in London at 5:15 a.m., and police said he was so drunk that he slurred his words and couldn't stand straight.
