Minnesota running back Leroy Hoard was arrested outside a Miami Beach nightclub early Saturday and charged with possession of a controlled substance and disorderly conduct, police said.

Police said they found what they believe to be the drug ecstasy in Hoard’s pocket when they were arresting him on disorderly conduct charges after a fight with his girlfriend.

The cream-colored pills had a marijuana leaf stamped on one side, according to Miami Beach Police Lt. Robert Dorigo. Hoard was released after posting $5,500 bond.
