A Scottsdale Police Department report states that former Arizona Coyotes forward Alex Galchenyuk threatened to kill officers and their families and also repeatedly used racial slurs after being pulled over.
Jenna Ortiz of the Arizona Republic provided more details from the report:
"He allegedly showed signs of impairment and had a heavily slurred speech. When he was in the patrol car, he threatened to 'chop' the officers and reached under his seat before being handcuffed.
"He also made threats to call his connections in Moscow and have the officer's wife and daughter's kidneys cut out. Two hours after he made the threats, Galchenyuk told the officer he was making the call and then laughed and said he was 'joking.'"
