Reportedly, police stopped the "Criminal Minds" star after he tried to drive through the restricted area. After stopping Gibson, police claimed they smelled a strong scent of alcohol coming from the car. They questioned him about the smell and then asked him to submit to a breathalyzer, which he refused.
