Eddie Hall 'arrested' after driving over car with a tank

Eddie Hall 'arrested' after driving over car with a tank

Hall was the winner of the World’s Strongest Man in 2017

Former World’s Strongest Man Eddie Hall was arrested after allegedly running over someone’s car with a tank.

In a video posted on Hall’s official TikTok account, it captured the moment he was approached by three police officers.

Hall was heard saying: “You’re saying I’ve ran over a car. I’m saying I haven’t.” An officer then explained that they will need to take him to the police station for further questioning about the incident. You can watch the footage below.

The 34-year-old then explained the whole situation, he said: “Well basically I was going to the gym, MClub gym just down the road. And as I was pulling in, this guy cut me off, gave me the middle finger, swearing at me, called me a load of names. And then I might have accidentally ran over his car.”

After this admission, the police officers then said that they had to arrest him and take him down to the station in handcuffs.

Hall was then handcuffed and searched by the police officers as he was arrested for dangerous driving.

Fans were quick to react to the video.

One said: “My guy thinks he could take Eddie Hall.”

Another commented: “Thinks he’s big enough to take Eddie the man had deadlifted 1100 pounds.”

A third fan added: “Eddie Hall would knock him into next week.”

Someone else wrote: “You know those cuffs are bracelets to him right? Confident he could break the chain.”

Last weekend, five years on from his World’s Strongest Man triumph, Hall was taking part in a strongman event as he represented team UK against the USA.

After the competition, Hall wrote on his Instagram: “First time Competing in over 5 YEARS! For the World's Strongest Nation show! Still got it."

Hall has also tried his luck in the boxing ring but was defeated by Hafthor Bjornsson earlier this year.
