A source with knowledge of the situation told ProFootballTalk.com that Peterson was with his girlfriend and family members at a nightclub.

When police entered the club at closing time and asked patrons to leave, Peterson attempted to order a water, but was denied by a police officer.

Peterson and the officer exchanged words, according to the source, before the running back headed for the exit with a bouncer.

According to PFT, it is believed an officer jumped on Peterson's back from behind, soon to be joined by other police. Peterson was then arrested.

The source told PFT the incident was captured on one or more surveillance cameras inside the club.

"it is believed an officer jumped on Peterson's back from behind"

Finding that detail a bit hard to believe

 

[joeydupree]

He probably got cut from his Middle School football team.

Exactly.

"He was being arrested for the crime of..."???? "when he resisted and made way for the exits..."

 

[joeydupree]

Not trying to claim he did nothing, but they sure haven't specified what he resisted the arrest of. Resisting arrest is an add on.

They had words, freedom to say whatever the hell you want only goes so far.

If he felt like peterson crossed that line, then so be it.

How do we know if the police crossed the line?

Sucker jumped on his back - really not necessary IMO - no weapon or threating position by AP and 1000k bail LOL call Walker Texas Ranger

should know soon the bouncer is a witness and the was a video camera

 

[volinreallife]

Does an off-duty cop have any right to tell you what to do? I thought they were just another citizen when off-duty.

 

[Spartacavolus]

Was he flagged for the horse collar?

 

[n_huffhines]

We live in a damn police state. This is ridiculous, if true.

It appears he shoved an off duty officer, who was working as a security guard that night.
