Dallas police have released the arrest reports detailing why they arrested three former Texas Christian University football stars earlier this month.
Police said officers were called to a nightclub at 1300 Main Street, because one of the three didn't want to give up a bottle of liquor and leave the club at closing time.
Officers said when they arrived the disturbance spilled onto the sidewalk. When officers approached, Hughes and Hodge grabbed Grant and said they were leaving.
After working to disperse the crowd outside the club, officers said they heard yelling a block away and they witnessed the argument starting to get physical.
As they started to arrest Grant, officers say Hughes tried to step in and pull him away from them. Police said Hughes didn't listen to commands to back away and was arrested.
