PHOENIX – A new video released by TMZ shows Phoenix Suns forward Dillon Brooks being pulled over for extreme speeding, weeks before recent DUI incident. On March 6th, Brooks was pulled over for allegedly driving while high, with the officer saying it “smelled like a dispensary.” The 30-year-old was brought in and had his mug shot take for the incident.

However, nearly eight weeks beforehand, Brooks was pulled over for reportedly going 85 in a 45 and faces two misdemeanors and already has a court date planned in early April, according to the New York Post.

Full interaction of January incident:

In the incident report, the officer wrote that he was “concerned about the extreme risk of a catastrophic collision or the vehicle striking a pedestrian.” He continued that any collision at Brooks’ speed could’ve led to multiple “fatalities” or serious injuries.

This all happened in the early mornings of January 12th, following the Suns 112-93 win over the Washington Wizards. Brooks scored 16 points on five-of-14 shooting in the game.

Brooks will face two misdemeanors for reckless driving and exceeding the speed limit by >20MPH on a court date set in April. While the March 6th DUI incident is unclear whether he’ll be facing criminal charges for that, Brooks will at minimum appear in court for the January 12th affair.
