Further details have emerged on Lachie Hunter’s drink-driving car accident that occurred on Friday night, with reports that he was driven by teammate Bailey Smith away from the scene.

Hunter has been charged with drinking under the influence after he crashed his car into four packed cars, one of which belonged to Smith’s girlfriend’s parents, according to AFL Media’s Mitch Cleary.

Smith reportedly took Hunter to another teammate’s house following the incident – forward Billy Gowers.

The midfielder has lost his license for 12 months and has been hit with a $1652 fine for breaking COVID-19 social distancing restrictions.

AFL CEO Gillon McLachlan said they would not tolerate Hunter’s actions.

“Clearly drink driving is just unacceptable in any aspect of the community, as is breaking lockdown laws,” McLachlan told 3AW.
