Former NFL running back Ricky Williams was arrested Wednesday in Texas after being pulled over by police.

Austin police told local NBC affiliate KXAN that Williams was stopped because his car did not have a rear license plate. The officer then learned Williams had two outstanding traffic warrants and he was arrested.

Williams was arrested in the same Texas county for another traffic violation in 1999 when he refused to sign a traffic ticket.
