Personal Life
On March 28, 2011, Stewart was arrested in Orange County, Florida and charged with impersonating a police officer. According to the allegation, he was driving his 2008 Toyota Tundra pick-up truck when he tried to pull over a vehicle using red and blue flashing police lights on Florida State Road 417. He pulled up along-side the vehicle and the occupants identified themselves as Florida State Troopers. When they identified themselves as law enforcement officers, he fled and was later caught at Orlando International Airport with the help of deputies from the Orange County Sheriff's Office and the Orlando Police. He was released from police custody at approximately 2:50 am the following morning. The truck used is currently impounded by Florida Highway Patrol pending resolution of the case.

Famous quotes containing the words personal life, personal and/or life:
“The dialectic between change and continuity is a painful but deeply instructive one, in personal life as in the life of a people. To “see the light” too often has meant rejecting the treasures found in darkness.”
—Adrienne Rich (b. 1929)
“Of the modes of persuasion furnished by the spoken word there are three kinds. The first kind depends on the personal character of the speaker; the second on putting the audience into a certain frame of mind; the third on the proof, provided by the words of the speech itself.”
—Aristotle (384–323 B.C.)
“Most vices ... demand considerable self-sacrifices. There is no greater mistake than to suppose that a vicious life is a life of uninterrupted pleasure. It is a life almost as wearisome and painful—if strenuously led—as Christian’s in The Pilgrim’s Progress.”
—Aldous Huxley (1894–1963)
