The details surrounding Anderson's arrest appear to be anything but pleasant, according to Brian Costello of The New York Post, citing an excerpt from the police report of the incident.
Per the police report, Anderson allegedly told the arresting officer he was going to find his wife, "f**k her and n*t in her eye.” My lord. Report said he was doing 105 mph in a 45 mph zone

Anderson is also awaiting trial pertaining to an arrest last May, in which he was charged with a felony count of resisting arrest with violence, as well as obstruction of justice while at a music festival in Miami.
