Minnesota Vikings running back Adrian Peterson was arrested early Saturday at a Houston nightclub on a charge of resisting arrest, a spokesperson at the Houston Police Department told NFL.com and NFL Network.
Peterson was arrested around 2:30 a.m. CDT. He spent the night in jail and was released on a $1,000 bond at 10:14 a.m.
HPD spokesman Kese Smith said Peterson allegedly pushed an off-duty police officer who was working security at Live! at Bayou Place.
As the off-duty officer cycled through the bar at closing time, he asked Peterson and his group of friends to leave, according to Smith. When the officer returned, Peterson told him "I heard you the first time," and pushed the officer in the shoulder, causing him to stumble.
