Police say the Denver Nuggets' Carmelo Anthony was arrested early Monday on suspicion of driving under the influence. Anthony was arrested at about 4 a.m. on I-25. Detective Sharon Hahn says an officer pulled him over for weaving and failing to dim his lights.

Originally, Denver Police said that Anthony was ticketed and released from the scene.  However, they now say that Anthony was transported to police headquarters and processed, before being released to a sober person. He is due in court on May 14.

The Nuggets issued a statement saying they are aware of  "the situation involving Carmelo Anthony" but declining further comment.
