“Do I look intoxicated to you?” Jones said. “Well he wasn’t [intoxicated]. I woke him up for his flight. Y’all talking about 6:30 in the morning.
“Who in the hell is drunk at 6:30 in the morning, man?
“I’m a part of the media too, but report the mother-f—king facts and stop reporting the bullsh*t.”
ORIGINAL STORY: Adam “Pacman” Jones was arrested in the early hours of Monday morning at the Cincinnati/Northern Kentucky International Airport.
According to reports, the former NFL defensive back was arrested after police were called to respond to an “unruly passenger” around 6:00 a.m. Pacman was arrested before takeoff.
“Airport police were called at 0600 to assist flight crew on an outbound flight about an unruly passenger. Passenger was arrested prior to takeoff and taken to Boone County Detention Center,” Cincinnati/Northern Kentucky International Airport said in a statement.
WLWT obtained video of Jones on the flight; standing in the aisle and asking, “why would I get off?”
A few hours before his arrest, the 39-year-old Pacman posted a video on social media of himself walking through the airport while talking about the Cincinnati Bengals-Cleveland Browns game in Week 1.
