According to TMZ, Jordan’s son Jeffrey is accused of assaulting staff at an Arizona hospital on Friday night. He was there at the time being treated for an injury he sustained at a bar.

Jeffrey Jordan was at Casa Amigos bar in Scottsdale when police say he “fell and hit his head,” Jordan then became combative with security who were trying to help him out of the bar to get his head looked at.
