Video has emerged from Bashaud Breeland’s Tuesday arrest, and it shows near disaster being the result.

The Chiefs’ defensive back resisted being taken into handcuffs in South Carolina by a York Country Sheriff’s Office deputy and had a gun pointed at his face, before eventually being taken away, the video obtained by TMZ Sports showed.

Breeland is currently facing a four-game suspension for a separate substance violation from the NFL.

The officer threatened to use a Taser on Breeland as the NFL player refused to go quietly and after Breeland continued to struggled, he had a gun drawn on him.

“Let me see your hands! … I’m not playing!” the officer shouted.

Breeland was charged with resisting arrest, the transport of alcohol with a broken seal in a motor vehicle, an open container of beer or wine in a motor vehicle, possession of 28 grams or less of marijuana or 10 grams of hash, and driving without a license.

Later, he tweeted: “I really was at a gas pump got approach by two guys police pulled up they throw something my car as police pulled up which the cop saw. I was the one detained wit charges that really shouldn’t be charged.”

The tweet has since been deleted.

The Chiefs stayed mum on the incident until Friday, when coach Andy Reid answered questions as part of a digital press conference.

“I’ve talked to him,” Reid said. “Right now, we’ll let it play out with the law enforcement side of things and evaluate it from there.”

Breeland’s representation addressed the episode, as well.

“At the time of this encounter with law enforcement, Mr. Breeland was leaving a gas station store after making a lawful purchase,” his attorney said in a statement on Tuesday. “Moments after returning to his vehicle, a 2020 Range Rover with valid temporary paper tags, law enforcement officers approached Mr. Breeland and drew their weapons.

“We look forward to investigating why this level of force was necessary. Bashaud Breeland is innocent unless proven guilty. We look forward to the truth coming forward.”
