Trey Anastasio has gone on the record about his December 15^th  arrest. "I feel terrible about what happened last night,” Anastasio says in a statement sent to Relix from his manager via e-mail. “I am deeply sorry for any embarrassment I have caused my friends, family and fans." At approximately 3:30AM this morning, Trey Anastasio was arrested under suspicion of driving while intoxicated in Whitehall, NY.

After being  searched, police found a variety of medications, including Xanax,  Percocet and Hydrocodone, which were prescribed to another person. Anastasio was approached at a traffic stop by Patrolman Andrew Mija and failed  a sobriety test. Anastasio was charged with criminal possession of a controlled substance, DWI-drugs, and driving without a license.  According to reports, Anastasio was traveling from his current New  York home to Vermont. Since parting ways with Phish, Anastasio has  talked at great lengths about his sober lifestyle. In 2005 he told  Relix, "I have been fucked up in one way or another for my entire  life, so I'm trying my best, simple as that."
