Adam ‘Pacman’ Jones Charged with Assaulting Police Officer, Disorderly Conduct
In what’s become a common occurrence, Adam “Pacman” Jones was arrested on Saturday. The former Mountaineer and NFL star was charged in Cincinnati and booked in the Kenton County jail, according to multiple reports.
Jones was charged with alcohol intoxication in a public place, disorderly conduct and assault of a police officer or a probation officer.
Jones, 41, was taken into custody just before 2 am Saturday morning. He was arrested by the Covington Police Department and posted a $10,000 bond. Jones was released at around 11:30 am that same morning.
This latest arrest marks at least the fourth time Jones has been arrested since 2021.

It’s time for WVU to cut ties with Pacman. Assaulting a police officer–the same officer that puts his life on the line everyday for Pacman and others–isn’t funny.

WVU does not employ Pacman. They also can’t control him. No one can.
