Tony Stewart was arrested in Australia after competing in some Sprint Car races at Sydney Speedway over the last week. It was an off-track incident allegedly between Tony and track owner Brett Morris over the track conditions, and the altercation may have involved a racing helmet to the face. Tony was questioned by local police, released and headed back to the United States.

“Tony was simply questioned about the alleged incident and, after the questioning, he returned to his hotel, got a good night’s rest and is currently en route to the states,” said Stewart spokesman Mike Arning, who did not accompany Stewart on the trip. “No charges were filed.”
