Everson Griffen arrested for 3rd time since July, this time for probable cause DWI

Griffen was arrested Saturday, Sept. 5, for probable cause DWI and drug possession. He's being held in the Hennepin County Jail.

Former Minnesota Vikings Pro Bowl defensive end Everson Griffen has been arrested for a third time in just over three months, this time on probable cause of 5th-degree drug possession and DWI. The incident occurred on Saturday, Sept. 5, when Griffen was pulled over by South Lake Minnetonka Police for allegedly driving recklessly.

According to the Minnesota Star Tribune, the officer noted "numerous signs of impairment" from possible stimulant and narcotic use. Griffen is currently being held without bail at the Hennepin County Jail. This follows his arrest in July for violating his restricted driver's license and last month's arrest on Interstate 394 in Minneapolis for failing to comply with a State Patrol trooper's commands.
