Miami Dolphins defensive end Randy Starks was arrested early Sunday , according to police . Starks , 25 , faces a charge of aggravated battery , according to the report . The arrest took place about 12:20 a.m. in Miami 's South Beach area . Officers said they saw the Freightliner truck in bumper-to-bumper traffic on South Beach 's Ocean Drive with some 13 people inside , including a woman sitting on the lap of Starks , who was driving . The truck 's seating capacity is four occupants , the police report said . It was not clear from the police report whether the Freightliner -- normally part of a tractor-trailer -- was connected to a trailer . In the report , the officer recalled pursuing the truck on foot for about a half-block and pounding on the rear driver 's - side window , but it kept moving . The officer caught up to the truck again , and it stopped after the officer pounded on the window again , the report said . `` I slowly approached the side door and just as I reached it the vehicle accelerated and started moving forward and slightly to the left , '' the unidentified officer writes in the report . `` The vehicle 's path caused the driver 's side of the vehicle to strike me in the chest pushing me back and pinning me against a vehicle stopped in traffic in the northbound lane . '' Meanwhile , a second officer was pounding on the passenger 's - side window , the report said . The truck stopped , and Starks was arrested . A police check showed that the truck 's license plate was not assigned to that vehicle , the report said , and Starks faces a charge for that as well . Starks was released from jail later Sunday , according to a records check . The Miami Herald newspaper reported earlier he was jailed on $ 10,000 bond . Dolphins spokesman Harvey Greene told CNN the club was `` only recently made aware of the situation . Since we are in the process of gathering information we have no comment . '' Starks is in his sixth NFL season and his second with the Dolphins .
