Former heavyweight boxing champ Mike Tyson was arrested for driving under the influence and possession of cocaine in Scottsdale, Arizona early Friday morning.
Police stopped Iron Mike after his car almost crashed into a sheriff's vehicle while leaving a bar around 1:45 a.m. The arresting officer was part of a special holiday DUI task force.
Police say Tyson was coopertive and acted like a gentleman.
Tyson is expected to have an initial appearance before a judge this week to determine bail.
This isn't Tyson's first brush in the law in Arizona. In 2004, the embattled boxer was arrested and charged with suspicion of criminal damage after cops say he left a nightclub and jumped on the hood of a stranger's car, causing about $1400 in damage.
