Fike Being Held

NASCAR is investigating an incident where Craftsman Truck Series driver Aaron Fike was arrested over the weekend on charges for possession of heroin and drug paraphernalia while at Kings Island, an amusement park in Ohio.

Fike, 24, is being held without bond at the Warren County Jail in Lebanon, Ohio, and will be arraigned at 9 a.m. ET Tuesday. Meanwhile, NASCAR is making arrangements to have the driver drug tested by an independent laboratory.

The article goes on to talk about how NASCAR handles drivers with substance issues, and that they try to work with people, but they only get 2 shots at it. 3 strikes, and they're gone, much like Shane Hmeil back in early 2006.

Other drivers who have been suspended from NASCAR for substance abuse issues are Brian Rose, Sammy Potashnick and Kevin Grubb. Rose and Potashnick never returned to the track. Grubb did return, but was suspended indefinitely on Sept. 12, 2006, after refusing to take a drug test. It was his second suspension.
