During the morning newscast, Trevino talked about the event and said the arrest happened on his way home from the rodeo.

Trevino expressed gratitude to viewers who have supported him. He admits it has been an embarrassment to him, his family and KHOU but said it is important for him to talk about it.

The anchor said nothing like this has ever happened to him before and he is still processing it.

He admitted the severity of the charge, and while he may not agree with the allegations against him, he supports what the Houston Police Department does to protect citizens from drunk drivers.

He says his side of the case will be presented soon and KHOU will continue to report on the story.
