Video of the scene surfaced early Sunday of Ferguson near a pickup truck that had flipped over and collided with multiple parked cars. TMZ reports the 39-year-old didn’t want to cooperate with police and refused to take a field sobriety test before his arrest.

Ferguson’s management declined to comment on the matter when reached by ESPN.
