Marcus Jordan, son of basketball legend Michael Jordan and a frequent figure on reality television, was arrested after, authorities said, he was out drinking at a Florida strip club before his car got stuck on railroad tracks early Tuesday.

Jordan, 34, who last played competitive basketball at the University of Central Florida in 2012, was booked on suspicion of DUI, drug possession and resisting arrest.

Maitland police officers came upon a blue Lamborghini stuck in railroad tracks near Greenwood Drive and Mechanic Street at about 1:14 a.m., according to an affidavit supporting Jordan’s arrest.

The officers were told that the car had fled from an attempted traffic stop by Seminole County sheriff’s deputies minutes earlier, the court document said.

“I stood at the window and immediately detected the odor of an alcoholic beverage coming from the vehicle,” an arresting officer wrote in the affidavit. “The defendant kept saying he made a wrong turn and needed assistance getting his vehicle off the railroad tracks. I noticed the driver had slurred speech and he was confused where he was located. I noticed the driver had red bloodshot and glassy eyes.”

Body camera video from the interaction shows two officers walking toward the car and coming upon Jordan and a woman in the passenger seat. The car is sitting parallel to the train tracks, with at least the two passenger side tires off the track and buried in the gravel below.
