So from what I understand:
- There was an accident earlier where a shuttle bus hit a pedestrian and killed them
- That situation was resolved but traffic was still backed up so police were around directing traffic
- Players are commonly told they can drive around traffic like this in their courtesy cars so they're not waiting forever to get onto the grounds although it's unsure what was relayed to Scheffler in this incident
- Scheffler attempted to drive around the traffic but was told to stop.
- He either didn't see or ignored the officer telling him to stop. Some reports say he believed it was private security and not police officers.
- The officer then attempted to grab his car to get him to stop (not really sure why...but ok).
- Some reports say he stopped then, some say he drove on for another 10+ yards
- When he stopped the officer tried to grab him out of the vehicle, then opened his door and pulled him out
From everything I can see it was a misunderstanding on Scheffler's part where he thought he was allowed to go around the traffic to get into the grounds and begin his routine warmups and then the cop got super upset that someone ignored him and things escalated from there and now they're charging him with everything they can to try to justify their actions and avoid a massive lawsuit.
