He\u2019d also previously been cited for refusing to take an intoxication test.<\/p>\n<p data-mrf-recirculation=\"Links P\u00e1rrafos\" class=\"ue-c-article__paragraph paragraph\"><strong>Romo <\/strong>was stopped while driving southbound on Interstate 43 in Milwaukee. According to authorities, the traffic stop followed concerns about his driving, including an unsafe pass on the right and cutting across a gore area separating traffic lanes from an entrance ramp.<\/p>\n<p data-mrf-recirculation=\"Links P\u00e1rrafos\" class=\"ue-c-article__paragraph paragraph\">During the encounter, an open alcoholic beverage was reportedly found inside <strong>Romo\u2019s <\/strong>vehicle.
