*Former NFL star Adam “Pacman” Jones is speaking out about his arrest Monday at Cincinnati/Northern Kentucky International Airport.
Jones, 39, is facing charges of alcohol intoxication, disorderly conduct, and terroristic threatening after allegedly causing a disturbance during a flight, USA Today reports. He was arrested by the Airport Police Department and booked into the Boone County Detention Center around 7:30 Monday morning.
After his release, Jones told reporters waiting in the parking lot that the airplane incident stemmed from him asking a flight attendant to move another seat so he could charge his iPad.
“…Cause I bought the two seats because I’m going somewhere,” Jones told reporters waiting at the jail. “And so, she like, ‘Well, if you want to move we got to turn around the plane.’ I’m like, ‘I don’t want you to turn around the plane, but I want to use the plug because I bought two seats,” he explained.
“Turn around the plane, we’ll get the body camera, so they called me off the plane, don’t say nothing wrong, they lock me up,” Jones said. “And here we are now.”

Jones denied making terroristic threats and being intoxicated during the flight.
“Do I look intoxicated to you? I only been locked up for two hours. Do I look intoxicated to you? I’m asking you a question. Do I look intoxicated to you Ma’am?”
In response, the female reporter said she couldn’t answer his question because she does not know him personally, or how he usually appears in public.
Jones then asked the male reporter the same question and he responded, ‘Sir, I don’t know… I can’t say yes or no… I don’t know.”
