That still doesn't say why the tried to arrest him
I expected the police report to be way more than that.
Intimidated by his size

Dixon was pulled over for splitting lanes while trying to make a U-turn. He then swerved and was driving in parking lane, passing other cars. Police asked for Dixon's ID. He said "You're seriously going to give me a ticket for that? I was making a U-turn" Dixon then said "Give me my ticket so I can get the f--- out of here." This continued. Dixon then said "You're just doing this because I'm a black man with dreads and I look like a criminal. I'm not a criminal." Cops said they were intimidated by Dixon's size. Dixon was "tensing and pulling away" when they tried to arrest him. Dixon then said "I'm not a criminal. I give so much to this community. I'm an NFL player. Let me call my agent"
Yeah, none of that should lead to an arrest. Just ticket the man and let him on his way. Being cocky/douchy/questioning a ticket shouldn't lead to an arrest. Some cops just refuse to be the bigger person.
I mean, really

That's the typical CYA police report for an arrest that should've never been made. None of that even seems like an arrestable offense.
So if he was a 5'4'' white guy questioning his ticket the cop wouldn't have been "intimated" so wouldn't have arrested?

So much of that is stupid.
If you're intimidated by a guy who's asking for a ticket, then why not give it to him and let it go?

He's only 6'0 and less than 200 lbs.

Good point. He's a freaking cornerback, how small was this cop?

No shite. Cops have guns and most of them know how to fight. This cop had to be a complete bitch or he just didn't like something about Dixon.

This is good news. Rob Ryan is in his players heads.

Some people would be shocked how far "yes sir" and "no sir" would get them. Much further than "what are you hasslin' me for!"

Clearly he was only arrested because he was black 
cops are suppose to be shown some respect. These people risk their lives for public safety. Sounds like Dixon felt an overload of entitlement because he's an nfl player, like that matters. It's good he was arrested and taught a lesson, race card doesn't get you anywhere but where you belong
