A news release published Tuesday by the Riverside Department of Public Safety stated that after pulling Bowe over for driving 48 mph in a 35 mph zone, police detected a strong odor of marijuana coming from inside the car: "The officer then requested the driver and two passengers to get out of the vehicle. Once out of the vehicle the Officer explained to the driver, who owned the vehicle, that he was a K-9 Officer and that the dog would alert to an illegal substance. Subsequently, inside of a black bag the officer discovered the wallet of the driver and vehicle owner, Dwayne L. Bowe, and two containers that had 6.6 grams and 3.8 grams respectively of what is believed to be marijuana in them. Bowe was then placed under arrest for the possession of a controlled substance. The K-9 alerted to a black backpack and inside of that was found a container that had 4.2 grams of what is believed to be marijuana in it." Bowe was suspended in 2009 for violating the NFL's policy on performance-enhancing substances, which differs from the substance-abuse violation he might face after Sunday's arrest.
