SCOTTSDALE, AZ (AZFamily) — A new police report details what led up to the alleged DUI arrest of a Phoenix Suns star last week in Scottsdale.
On Friday, Dillon Brooks was arrested on suspicion of driving under the influence near Thunderbird and Scottsdale roads around 1 a.m. In the police report, a Scottsdale police officer saw Brooks’ Rolls-Royce weaving in between lanes before correcting.
The officer continued following Brooks and saw him continuously weaving in and out of lanes at least five times, according to the report.
The officer pulled over Brooks, who stopped in a nearby parking lot. The report details that the officer “observed the odor of fresh and burnt cannabis coming from inside the vehicle.”
In body-camera video released by Scottsdale police, Brooks denied smoking marijuana when asked by the officer.
“It’s been a while,” Brooks replied, denying having marijuana in the car.
“It smells quite heavily of the presence of marijuana. That’s why I’m asking,” the officer said.
“To be honest with you, it smells like a dispensary in your car,” the officer added.
In the report, the officer notes that Brooks’ movements seemed to be “very slow” and his speech was “slow and mumbled.” Brooks also reportedly had bloodshot, watery eyes, according to police.
The Suns star told the officer had been six months since he last smoked marijuana.
The officer conducted several field sobriety tests and noted several clues indicating possible DUI. A breathalyzer test was also given to Brooks, which came back as zero percent.
Brooks was placed under arrest on suspicion of driving under the influence but was later released.
Scottsdale police say the 30-year-old faces two DUI-related charges. A blood test was collected for Brooks, but the results are pending.
The forward has been out of the Suns’ lineup since he fractured his hand on Feb. 21 against the Orlando Magic.
