Welcome to Arrest Stories. Twenty-three-year-old Minnesota Vikings wide receiver Jordan Addison was arrested by Seminole Indian Police in Tampa, Florida on probable cause for trespassing in an occupied structure or conveyance. Here's what may have happened.
In the early morning hours of Monday, Seminole Indian Police arrested Addison at three forty-six a.m. local time at an address associated with the Seminole Hard Rock Hotel and Casino. The arrest occurred on the fifty-two hundred block of Orient Road, an area occupied by multiple restaurants and clubs.
Following his arrest, Addison was transported and booked into Hillsborough County Jail at seven thirty-three a.m. He was released approximately eleven hours later at two forty p.m. Monday afternoon after posting a five hundred dollar cash bond. Despite the arrest, Addison has not yet been formally charged.
This incident marks the third time in four offseasons that Addison has encountered legal troubles. In July twenty twenty-three, before his rookie season, he was cited for driving one hundred forty miles per hour on Interstate ninety-four in Saint Paul, Minnesota. More recently, in July twenty twenty-four, authorities found Addison asleep behind the wheel of a Rolls-Royce on a Los Angeles freeway, leading to a DUI arrest by California Highway Patrol.
Addison's legal team has responded to the latest arrest. His attorney stated, "On Jordan's behalf, his legal team has already initiated the investigation, identified witnesses, and we are reviewing the viability of a claim for false arrest. He looks forward to the legal process and upon full investigation, we are confident Mister Addison will be exonerated."
Team officials have acknowledged the situation but remained cautious in their comments. One official stated, "I just learned about that very, very recently, so I don't want to speculate on that in any way, shape or form. We gotta get as many facts and find out exactly what happened."
Minnesota selected Addison with the twenty-third pick in the twenty twenty-three NFL Draft.
All suspects presumed innocent until proven guilty in a court of law. Do not take this report as factual, always verify facts. Thanks for watching Arrest Stories.
