LAS VEGAS — Authorities say former UFC fighter Stephan Bonnar has been arrested on suspicion of DUI after allegedly driving recklessly on a Las Vegas freeway.

Nevada Highway Patrol officials say Bonnar was booked Sunday into the Clark County Detention Center on a DUI charge (third offense), resisting an officer and traffic offenses.

It was unclear Monday if the 41-year-old Bonnar has a lawyer.

Highway Patrol officials say their dispatch center received multiple calls about a Cadillac speeding and making unsafe lane changes on Interstate 15 around 1:15 p.m. Sunday.

The vehicle was found along the highway about 10 miles north of the Las Vegas Strip.

A trooper reported smelling alcohol when putting handcuffs on Bonnar, who woke up and resisted arrest.

Bonnar, who was featured in the first season of “The Ultimate Fighter,” was a 2013 inductee into the UFC’s Hall of Fame.
