One thing that really got me was the fact that he was arrested at the golf course, at a time when his family has just washed ashore.

Maybe someone can clarify, but I don't think he was actually playing golf nor was he at the course....but that he was pulled over and arrested on Torrie Pines Road near a golf course....or was he in fact on his way to play golf? Can anyone confirm?

Police feared Peterson would flee

Scott Peterson, whose parents live in San Diego, was driving there when he was taken into custody, Wasden said, adding that the arrest was made before the DNA tests had been completed.

Lockyer said authorities feared Peterson would flee if he became aware of the developments in the case.

"He was in San Diego, near the [Mexican] border ... perhaps since he was aware of the fact that there was surveillance that he might try to run," the attorney general said.

"Driving up and down the freeway, he was aware of surveillance teams, was waving at them and being kind of a smart aleck, and so they finally decided that they ought to just pull him in," Lockyer said, adding that police had followed Scott "for a number of days, maintaining surveillance, wiretaps on phones, trackers on vehicles to try to accumulate the evidence."

The arrest took place in the parking lot of the Torrey Pines Municipal Golf Course, witnesses said.

I believe it was mentioned on FNC that he was arrested in the parking lot and that he also had his golf clubs with him ..

On TV I believe I heard them say that he had his golf clubs in the back of the car.

This has probably been answered but reports have him on his way to play golf when arrested. Clubs were in the car and he had entered the parking lot of the course.
