Former NFL running back Marshawn Lynch was arrested earlier this week in Las Vegas and charged with driving under the influence, and now more information as well as video has been released. Officers found Lynch, who had clearly run into several obstacles on the road given the condition of the car, asleep in the vehicle which he later said that he stole. 

Per USA Today: 

Officers found a man, whom they later identified as Lynch, asleep and reclining in the driver's seat with the driver's door open.

Per the report, Lynch, 36, was wearing only one shoe and "would speak and then fall back asleep several times throughout the encounter." The report states that officers "observed a strong odor of an alcoholic beverage emitting from the vehicle, his person and his breath along with bloodshot, watery eyes."

"Police said "Lynch stated that he was not drinking and he does not do drugs, but that he stole the vehicle."
