<p id=”par-4_56″>Marcus reportedly failed to complete any field sobriety tests at the scene. He then refused to enter the police car, becoming “agitated and irritated” before officers discovered a bag of cocaine in his pocket. Marcus sang “all the way” to the Orange County DUI Center, causing the vehicle to smell “strongly like an alcoholic beverage.” </p>

Police found the young man “very animated, intoxicated and uncooperative” as he heatedly argued with two women outside of an Embassy Suites.

Instead, Michael Jordan’s second-oldest child spent several hours at Douglas County Correctional Center. </p>
