Claims Juventus star Vidal attempted to punch police emerge

The fallout from Juventus midfielder Arturo Vidal's car crash continues.

Chilean media sources are reporting Vidal tried to throw a punch at police after he was arrested for drunk driving.

According to those who have read the police report, Vidal not only insulted them after the accident, but even tried to throw a punch at one of the officers.

He was caught on videophone telling police “fine, arrest me, but if you do then you'll be ruining it for all of Chile."

His driving licence was suspended and he'll have to sign on at the Chilean embassy in Milan once a month for the next 120 days while the investigation continues.
