NBA-star Michael Jordan’s 34-year-old son was arrested in Central Florida late Monday, local officials confirmed to USA TODAY Tuesday.

Marcus James Jordan was booked into jail on Tuesday, Orange County Corrections Department online records show.

The 34-year-old man, whose home address is listed in Orlando online, was arrested on charges including DUI, cocaine possession and resisting arrest, an Orange County Sheriff’s Office spokesperson told USA TODAY Tuesday morning.

Jordan remained jailed Tuesday morning, but was expected to be released later on Tuesday after posting a $4,000 bond, the sheriff’s office spokesperson said.

Details about what led to the arrest and where it took place in the Orlando area were unclear and it was not immediately known whether Jordan had obtained an attorney in the case.

An arraignment date on the charges had not been set as of Tuesday morning, the spokesperson said.
