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 and/or life:
“I would rather have as my patron a host of anonymous citizens digging into their own pockets for the price of a book or a magazine than a small body of enlightened and responsible men administering public funds. I would rather chance my personal vision of truth striking home here and there in the chaos of publication that exists than attempt to filter it through a few sets of official, honorably public-spirited scruples.”
—John Updike (b. 1932)
“Had I but died an hour before this chance,
I had lived a blessed time; for from this instant
There’s nothing serious in mortality.
All is but toys; renown and grace is dead,
The wine of life is drawn, and the mere lees
Is left this vault to brag of.”
—William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
