Adrian Peterson Arrested on Multiple Disturbing Charges

Former NFL star running back Adrian Peterson was arrested in Sugar Land, Texas, on Sunday morning after allegedly driving while intoxicated.
According to TMZ, the Minnesota Vikings legend was arrested at around 10 a.m. local time and charged with driving while intoxicated (DWI) and the unlawful carrying of a weapon. Further details aren’t clear at this time, and Peterson has yet to comment.
This news is especially concerning because Adrian Peterson was arrested by a state trooper in Minnesota six months ago for driving while intoxicated. At the time, TMZ reported that Peterson was driving 83 in a 55 MPH zone and blew a .14 after being tested by the officer.
In Feb. 2022, Peterson was also arrested after an incident with his wife, Ashley, at the Los Angeles International Airport. Ashley addressed the matter and said it was a “verbal” argument and claimed Peterson did not hit her.
Peterson played in the NFL from 2007 to 2018, including 10 seasons with the Vikings. The 2012 NFL MVP retired with 14,918 rushing yards and 120 touchdowns in 184 NFL games.
