Aside from Titans WR Kenny Britt, which NFL player would least surprise you by getting arrested in this locked out offseason? If you said Bengals CB Adam “Pacman” Jones, you’re absolutely correct.
According to WLWT in Cincinnati, Jones was handcuffed early this morning after he refused to cooperate with police officers at a local bar. WKRC reports Jones has been charged with disorderly conduct while intoxicated and resisting arrest.
JonesWitnesses told police that Jones was intoxicated and disruptive. After getting into an argument, he was asked to leave but refused. Police were then called, but still, Jones apparently refused to depart. As officers tried to arrest him, police say Jones tried to slip out of the handcuffs and that it took two officers to restrain him. He was booked into Hamilton County jail about 3 a.m.
You’ll recall that Jones was arrested last year after a case of mistaken identity -- the Cincinnati police actually had to apologize to Jones -- but for a guy whose wages were garnished because of unpaid invoices to a high end car company, you’d think Jones would be more concerned with keeping his job in Cincinnati than in NOT leaving a bar when asked (by police!).
Of course, for a guy who’s been in as much trouble as Jones has been in the past, this latest clash with police is certainly not a surprise. And, once again, he might face a long suspension for his alleged actions. For Jones, who was suspended for the entire 2007 season, that would not be good news.
