According to several sources, Charles Barkley was arrested on suspicion of drinking and driving early Wednesday in Arizona.

An officer with a law enforcement task force that targets drunken driving saw the former NBA star run a stop sign around 1:30 a.m., said Gilbert police Lt. Eric Shuhandler.

Barkley declined to submit to a breath test but was given a blood test. The results weren’t immediately available.

After Barkley was processed, he was cited and released. He left in a cab, Shuhandler said.

Now, according to E! Online Barkley was very honest with police about why he was running the red light. A little too honest.

“You want the truth? I was gonna drive around the corner and get a b–w j-b,” Barkley told a Gilbert Police Department officer, according to his arrest report, which was obtained by the Smoking Gun.

In fact, he was planning an encore visit with a girl who the previous week gave him “the best one he had ever had in his life.”

Redlight special indeed.
