Earlier this month, he was campaigning to become executive director of the California State Athletic Commission. Now, Kimo Leopoldo is under arrest for allegedly possessing methamphetamine and donning Long Beach Police Department attire.

TMZ reported tonight that the former Ultimate Fighting Championship contender was arrested Monday in Tustin for possession of meth and wearing a Long Beach Police jumpsuit and cloth badge.

Leopoldo fought Royce Gracie at UFC 3, but hasn’t been in the organization since 2004. His most recent mixed martial arts bout was in 2006.
