- Marcus Jordan Claims ‘I’m Michael Jordan’s Son’ During DUI Arrest, he was arrested early Tuesday morning in Florida on multiple charges.

Recently, Marcus Jordan, the 34-year-old son of basketball legend Michael Jordan, was taken into custody in Florida for allegations of driving under the influence, possessing cocaine, and resisting arrest.
Law enforcement officials came across his Lamborghini SUV stuck on railroad tracks in Maitland, Florida, just before a commuter train was due to pass. Prior to this event, Jordan had evaded a traffic stop and ended up getting his vehicle trapped after unsuccessfully trying to move it along the tracks’ rough terrain.
When officers arrived, they noticed a strong smell of alcohol and observed signs of impairment, such as slurred speech and disorientation.
During a search of Jordan, authorities found a pouch containing a white substance in his pocket, which later turned out to be cocaine. Jordan disclosed that he had been drinking earlier at several places, including a strip club in Winter Park.
Marcus Jordan allegedly resisted arrest by stretching his legs to keep officers from closing the patrol car door. During his transport to the Orange County DUI Center, he was described as uncooperative and continued to show signs of intoxication. Officers also noted that the patrol car began to reek of alcohol after he got in.
This isn’t Marcus Jordan’s first brush with the law. In 2012, he faced charges for disorderly conduct and resisting arrest in Omaha, Nebraska. He also gained attention for his short basketball career at the University of Central Florida and appearances on reality TV shows like The Real Housewives of Miami and The Traitors.
Jordan was released from custody a few hours after posting bail. Representatives for Michael Jordan have not yet commented on the situation.
