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:
“Healthy parenting is nothing if not a process of empowerment. As we help to raise our children’s self-esteem, we also increase their personal power. When we encourage them to be confident, self-reliant, self-directed, and responsible individuals, we are giving them power.”
—Louise Hart (20th century)
“In our world of big names, curiously, our true heroes tend to be anonymous. In this life of illusion and quasi-illusion, the person of solid virtues who can be admired for something more substantial than his well-knownness often proves to be the unsung hero: the teacher, the nurse, the mother, the honest cop, the hard worker at lonely, underpaid, unglamorous, unpublicized jobs.”
—Daniel J. Boorstin (b. 1914)
