Wrestler Hulk Hogan's son, Nick Hogan, 17, was arrested this morning in Clearwater, Florida stemming from an August car crash that left his passenger and friend John Graziano, a Marine who had just completed a tour of duty in Iraq, hospitalized, reportedly in a coma. Graziano, who wasn't wearing a seatbelt, may have also suffered brain damage caused by swelling of his brain. Hogan is now facing several criminal charges, including third-degree felony reckless driving involving serious bodily injury. Police also cited the younger Hogan, whose real name is Nick Bollea, for use of a motor vehicle in commission of a felony, being under the age of 21 and operating a vehicle with a breath-alcohol level of 0.02 percent or higher and illegal window tint. The Clearwater police arrest report released this morning reports that Hogan was racing a second car, before the crash, at speeds of over 60 mph through the 40-mph zone, which was wet from recent rains. Despite being a minor at the time of the accident, Hogan will be tried on the charge as an adult. While investigators concluded that the actions of the other car's driver were not a contributing factor in the crash, Daniel Jacobs, the 22-year-old driver of a second car, which investigators have concluded was racing Hogan's car at the time of the crash, is also being issued a summons to appear in court for reckless driving.
