reporter Jeff Darlington was in the vicinity of the incident and caught video of Scheffler being put into the back of a police vehicle. Scheffler called the incident a 'big misunderstanding' on Friday. 'This morning, I was proceeding as directed by police officers. It was a very chaotic situation, understandably so considering the tragic accident that had occurred earlier, and there was a big misunderstanding of what I thought I was being asked to do,' he said.
Of course, all of us involved in the tournament express our deepest sympathies to the family of the man who passed away in the earlier accident this morning. It truly puts everything in perspective.'
