Authorities have charged Packers safeties coach Darren Perry with one count of a first offense of operating while intoxicated stemming from a traffic stop in December.
 
Perry has a hearing scheduled in Brown County Circuit Court on Feb. 23 after he was charged last month with OWI, along with one count each of refusing to take a breathalyzer test and making an unsafe lane change after the traffic stop on Dec. 17.
 
Earlier this week, prosecutors added a charge of operating with prohibited alcohol concentration, which is typical in such cases in Wisconsin. 
 
"The Packers are aware of the matter involving Darren Perry and have been in communication with the NFL," the team said in a statement. "As a pending legal matter, we will refrain from making further comment."
