Report: Adrian Peterson could be arrested again for drug violation

Minnesota Vikings running back Adrian Peterson could be arrested again after admitting he used drugs, which would violate his bond agreement.

Minnesota Vikings running back Adrian Peterson could be arrested again after admitting he used drugs, which would violate his bond conditions, reports FOX 9 in Minneapolis-St. Paul. 

According to the report, Montgomery County prosecutors have filed documents to have Peterson arrested again after Peterson admitted to a staffer that he "smoked a little weed" before giving a urine sample on Wednesday. 

The district attorney has reportedly asked the judge to set aside Peterson's $15,000 bond.

FOX 9 reports that there likely won't be any action on Thursday, because the judge presiding over Peterson's case has a hearing scheduled for Friday morning. 

Peterson was arrested and indicted in September on charges of reckless or negligent injury to a child after authorities said he hit his 4-year-old son with a switch. 

A tentative trial date for the week of Dec. 1 was set on Wednesday. On the same day, Peterson appeared in a Montgomery County, Texas, courtroom, but did not enter a plea.

The 29-year-old faces up to two years in prison and a $10,000 fine if convicted on the charges. He agreed to be placed on the Commissioner's Exempt list while his investigation is ongoing.
