UFC star Conor McGregor was arrested Tuesday for allegedly violating road traffic in his native Dublin, Ireland.
McGregor spokesperson Karen Kessler told ESPN that “Mr. McGregor was driving to the gym when he was stopped by [Irish police] for alleged road traffic violations… He passed the drug and alcohol tests taken at the station.”
The 33 year-old was driving his €170,000 Bentley Continental GT at the time of the arrest, which was seized from him, only to be returned after he was released on bail.
