NASCAR driver Carson Ware arrested for assault and property damage, indefinitely suspended

Rowan County, North Carolina Sheriff's Office
    It has come to the attention of Stock Car Media that on the morning of Wednesday, October 20th, 2021, Carson Ware, the son of NASCAR team owner Rick Ware and driver of the NASCAR Xfinity Series No. 17 entry was arrested in Rowan County, North Carolina for assault upon a female individual, and for injury to personal property.


Making his NASCAR Xfinity Series debut in May of 2020 at Bristol Motor Speedway during the "Cheddar's" 300, Ware has amounted nine starts in the series, most (if not all) of which coming through an alliance with his father's race team.


Due to Ware's recent alleged activities NASCAR has indefinitely suspended Carson Ware, as did SS Green Light Racing, the team which Ware currently drives for. Garrett Smithley who often drives for Rick Ware Racing in the NASCAR Cup Series, is expected to drive the No. 17 entry this weekend at Kansas Speedway in place of Ware. Further race arrangements in connection to Ware's indefinite suspension are yet to be announced.


“This morning I was notified of a situation that involved Carson Ware," Rick Ware explained in a statement posted to twitter "At this time, Carson has been indefinitely suspended by SS Green Light Racing and NASCAR. While I am frustrated by the actions of Carson, I am even more disappointed for Bobby Dotter and his entire team. Bobby has been a great ally through the years, and I hate to see SS Green Light Racing under scrutiny due to actions that do not reflect the reputation and image that Bobby has worked hard to uphold throughout the years. My hope is that Carson will get the help that he needs during this difficult time.”


Carson Ware currently has a $1,000 bond for the crimes he has been accused of committing. A court hearing will be held on November 19th for the accusations and charges that Ware has amounted.
