TAMPA - Troubled former Tampa Bay Rays player Elijah Dukes has been charged with driving with a suspended or revoked driver's license.
Hillsborough County Jail records show 26-year-old Dukes was released Sunday afternoon on a $250 bond. Officials say he was arrested at 2:24 p.m. Sunday on an exit ramp of Interstate 75.
It was the latest in a string of arrests for Dukes, who most recently played for the Washington Nationals.
Dukes was also arrested March 2 after a former girlfriend accused him of hitting her. At that time, he was charged with aggravated assault on a pregnant woman and driving with a suspended or revoked license.
