Balotelli has been in a car accident! Italian striker shot up his Audi, police officers took away his licence for refusing a breath test

Italian footballer Mario Balotelli recently had an unpleasant experience when he crashed his Audi Q8 into a wall in his hometown of Brescia. The accident occurred at 20:30 on Thursday evening and resulted in significant damage to his vehicle.

As reported by the well-known Spanish newspaper MARCA, Balotelli suffered a nasty accident on Thursday evening when he almost literally shot up his Audi Q8.

According to witnesses, although shaken, Balotelli managed to get out of the wreck and was given quick medical attention by paramedics. Despite the impact, he fortunately did not suffer any serious injuries. However, he refused to submit to a breathalyzer test after the accident, which led to the confiscation of his driver’s license.

Balotelli’s brother, Enock Barwuah, arrived at the scene after returning from football training, escorted Balotelli home and ensured his safety.

Although this car accident was fortunately avoided without serious injuries, it serves as another chapter in the rich career of this talented but highly controversial footballer. You can see just how badly Balotelli’s car was damaged in the attached video below.

Balotelli is currently playing for Turkish club Adana Demirspor, where he has scored three goals in five games so far. And as the former Italy international has already stated, despite his history of controversial incidents on and off the pitch, Balotelli is currently focused on his performances at the club.

But it’s understandable that fans are wondering how long Balotelli can keep this up. He transferred to Demirspor in September this year, from Swiss side Sion.

And it was there that Balotelli added a great deal of controversy to an already rich account. It should be noted, we have already reported about his incidents in Sion in a previous article.
