Boyd Tinsley Arrested for DUI After Alleged Collision in Virginia
Boyd Tinsley, former Dave Matthews Band violinist, was arrested for DUI after an alleged car collision in Virginia. This comes amid ongoing legal issues from past allegations.
Virginia, Bollywood Fever: Boyd Tinsley, the renowned violinist and former member of the Dave Matthews Band, has been arrested for DUI following an alleged collision with another vehicle. The incident occurred on Monday in Rio, VA, where law enforcement responded to a two-vehicle crash.
According to law enforcement sources, officers arrived at the scene and, after about 20 minutes, arrested Tinsley on suspicion of driving under the influence. The details surrounding the incident remain somewhat unclear, but video footage shows Tinsley interacting with police officers on-site, shedding some light on the situation.

Eyewitnesses report that Tinsley, driving an Escalade, allegedly collided with a Corvette. The two drivers pulled over to assess the damage, but the other driver, noticing something off about Tinsley’s demeanor, decided to call the police. The authorities arrived shortly thereafter and took Tinsley into custody.
Records indicate that Tinsley was booked around 9:30 PM and was released about an hour later after posting bond.
This DUI arrest adds to Tinsley’s ongoing legal troubles. Four months ago, he was hit with a lawsuit related to previous allegations from 2018. Former Crystal Garden bandmate James Frost-Winn had accused Tinsley of sexual harassment, leading to Tinsley’s departure from the Dave Matthews Band amidst the controversy.
Tinsley initially denied the allegations and intended to defend himself in court. However, he eventually reached an out-of-court settlement with Frost-Winn in June 2019. The situation resurfaced in February when Tinsley was sued again for allegedly breaching a mutual non-disparagement clause in the settlement through his social media activity.
This latest incident only compounds the challenges Tinsley faces as he navigates these serious legal issues. As the case develops, further details about the DUI arrest and its implications for Tinsley’s legal standing are expected to emerge.
