Conor was reportedly pulled over while driving his Bentley Continental GT, which is worth more than $230,000, after raking up a number of previous traffic convictions in his native Ireland, according to Ireland’s Independent.

Conor was “arrested for road traffic offenses” and his car was seized. It has since been returned.

“It is understood he has been charged with dangerous driving and will appear before Blanchardstown district court next month,” the news outlet reports.

Following news of his arrest, Conor‘s spokesperson released a statement.

“Mr. McGregor was driving to the gym when he was stopped by [Irish Police] for alleged road traffic violations,” the statement reads, via ESPN. “He passed the drug and alcohol tests taken at the station.”

This is just Conor‘s latest run-in with the law. He has made several driving offenses and was arrested in Brooklyn back in 2018 when he threw a dolly through a bus window after a media day in effort to get at UFC fighter rival Khabib Nurmagomedov. Then in 2019, Conor pleaded guilty to assault after punching an older man at a Dublin bar and was fined 1,000 euros.

Back in September, Conor got into an altercation with this musician on the red carpet at the 2021 MTV Video Music Awards.
