  • Scottsdale police say Brooks was stopped for traffic violations near Scottsdale Road just south of Thunderbird Road around 1 a.m., arrested at 1:33 a.m., and booked and released around 3:30 a.m.
  • No charges have been filed to date, and the city prosecutor will determine whether to pursue a case.
