Steelers receiver Hines Ward, who has spent the offseason as one of the contestants on Dancing with the Stars, had to do a different type of tapdancing early Thursday.

According to TMZ, Ward, who was the passenger in a car driven by an unnamed female, was handcuffed at gunpoint after police checked the license plates and realized the vehicle had been reported as stolen.

As it turns out, the driver had previously reported the car as stolen after an incident with a valet. She didn’t let police know she’d gotten the vehicle back.

Per the report, the police verified the story and allowed them to leave from the scene of the stop.
