Video Shows Marcus Jordan Mentioning His Father’s Name Probably To Prevent DUI, Cocaine Possession Arrest

There’s footage that’s been going around the internet of Marcus Jordan, legendary NBA star, Michael Jordan’s son. And in the video, he got pulled over by the cops. But here’s the crazy part – he started mentioning his dad’s name like it’s some sort of magic word to get out of trouble.

Now, I don’t know about you, but this seems a bit fishy to me. It’s like he was trying to use his dad’s star power to avoid getting arrested for driving under the influence and allegedly having some cocaine on him. I mean, come on, Marcus, you can’t just drop your dad’s name and expect everything to be okay!

A police report said at 1:14 a.m. local time Tuesday, two officers were headed east on Greenwood Road near Mechanic Street in Maitland when they saw the Lamborghini on the tracks. An officer noticed the middle of the car was sport-utility vehicle was positioned over the tracks, and the tires were halfway buried in the dirt and rocks by being spun repeatedly, the report said.

The Seminole County Sheriff’s office told Maitland police the same blue Lamborghini SUV had just fled from a traffic stop by their officers, the report said.

The Maitland officer stood at the window and noticed the smell of an alcoholic beverage, the report said. Jordan kept saying he had made a wrong turn and needed help getting the SUV off the tracks, and he was confused about where he was located, the report said. Jordan also had slurred speech and red, bloodshot eyes, the report said.

The officer asked Jordan to step out of the SUV, but Jordan would not do so — instead advising he was going to drive it, the report said. The vehicle was not going anywhere being stuck on the tracks, and there was a danger that the SUV could be hit by a train, the report said.

The officer eventually ordered Jordan and his passenger to get out of the vehicle, and they complied.

Jordan told the officer the last place he’d been was gentlemen’s club, and he had had some drinks, the report said. Jordan said he did not consume enough to be over the legal limit, but the officer had him perform field sobriety tests and then arrested him for driving under the influence, the report said.

Jordan also name-dropped his father to police, as documented on video.

“I’m Marcus Jordan. I’m Michael Jordan’s son. I’m not doing anything wrong,” Jordan is heard saying on police bodycam video. “I’m just trying to get home, and I made a wrong turn.”

Jordan was cited with driving under the influence, and charged with a DUI crash with property damage, possession of cocaine, and resisting an officer without violence.

But hey, I guess we’ll have to wait and see how this all plays out. Maybe there’s more to the story or maybe it’s just a big misunderstanding. Either way, it has gotten people talking and wondering if fame and connections can get you out of anything.
