Baltimore Ravens linebacker Terrell Suggs was arrested and cited for leaving the scene of an accident and driving with a suspended license in Scottsdale, Ariz., early Friday morning, according to Scottsdale police.

Police confirmed to TMZ they were called about a crash in a grocery store parking lot at 1:20 a.m. When police arrived, they found a “fluid trail” that led to Suggs’ BMW, which had “fresh damage.”

“This morning Terrell Suggs was involved in a single car collision, no one was injured. Police were called and upon speaking with Terrell found his license to be suspended for speeding tickets. He was detained by the police and released a couple of hours later. Terrell will let the judicial system take its course and fix his license issues,” tweeted Denise White, a representative for Suggs.

Police investigated and determined that Suggs was not impaired and he possibly fell asleep before the crash.

The Ravens issued a statement on the team’s website.

“Terrell made us aware of the situation, and we are looking into it,” said Ravens Senior Vice President of Public and Community Relations Kevin Byrne.

Suggs tweeted about the incident on Friday.
