The website reported that when the children moved into their father’s car after he directed them to do so, Govan followed and tried to block his car. A 911 call was placed and the 33-year-old was arrested for child endangerment and violating a court order, according to TMZ.

The boys were reportedly allowed to go with the former Los Angeles Lakers player after he proved it was his weekend to have the kids, US Weekly reported.

Govan was released on $100,000 bail on Saturday, September 1.
