FAYETTEVILLE — Ronnie Brewer, a standout basketball player at Fayetteville High School and for the Arkansas Razorbacks before playing in the NBA, was arrested Saturday night on suspicion of driving while intoxicated.

The arresting officer said in the report he could smell the odor of intoxicants on Brewer's breath, that his eyes were blood shot and watery and his speech was slurred.
