Former NFL MVP Adrian Peterson was arrested on charges of driving while intoxicated and unlawful carrying of a weapon, according to online jail records in Texas' Fort Bend County.
The arrests took place Sunday morning in Sugar Land, Texas.
A Fort Bend County spokesperson told the Houston Chronicle that Peterson was to spend Sunday night in jail ahead of a meeting with a judge Monday morning, after which he can post bail.
Peterson also was arrested in April on a fourth-degree driving while impaired charge after he was clocked driving 83 mph in a 55-mph zone following a public NFL draft party for the Minnesota Vikings, his longtime team.
Peterson has been involved in a number of incidents over the years, including domestic violence, child abuse and financial issues.
The 40-year-old was the Vikings' first-round pick in 2007. In his 15 NFL seasons, he was a four-time All-Pro, a seven-time Pro Bowler and the MVP in 2012. His 14,918 rushing yards rank fifth all time in the NFL.
