Per the Houston PD, Adrian L. Peterson, born March 21st 1985 was bonded out early this morning, after being charged with evading arrest. His bond was set for $1000, an amount that is generally set for Class A misdemeanors by first time offenders.

He was arrested around 2:30 AM on Saturday morning, at or near the Bayou Place Club in downtown Houston. Peterson resides in Houston during the NFL offseason.

One would wonder what led to the “evading” part of the crime, since you cannot technically evade arrest until an arrest has been attempted. More news to come, but we can confirm that Minnesota’s franchise did spend the night in one of America’s toughest jails last night.
