08:38 AM ET 06.23 | In what is becoming a ritual at Halas Hall, the Bears began gathering information Friday about a police incident involving Tank Johnson that could affect the length of his eight-game NFL suspension -- if not his standing with the team. Gilbert, Ariz., police pulled Johnson over at 3:30 a.m. Friday and issued a citation for "being impaired to the slightest degree," according to police spokesman Sgt. Andrew Duncan. Police initially stopped Johnson at the corner of Gilbert and Park avenues for going 40 m.p.h. in a 25-m.p.h. zone when the officer on the scene "made observations that led him to believe Johnson was impaired," Duncan said. Johnson was taken to the Gilbert police station, where blood was drawn to determine his blood-alcohol content. Results of those tests aren't expected for up to two weeks.
