UFC fighter Tony Ferguson has been arrested on suspicion of drink driving after a car crash in Los Angeles.

Footage from the scene shows a large truck flipped on one side with exploded airbags inside having crushed a Mercedes and another car outside of a Hollywood club.

Cops said Ferguson refused to take a breathalyser test and was "very uncooperative" after arriving at the scene at around 2am on Sunday, TMZ reports.

The martial arts fighter was reportedly arrested on suspicion of drink driving.

One of the cars Ferguson allegedly hit reportedly belongs to rapper Cash Gotti who emerged from the club to find his vehicle destroyed.
