Oklahoma State running back Ollie Gordon II was arrested Sunday morning on multiple charges, including driving under the influence, after he was pulled over south of Oklahoma City, according to multiple reports.
Gordon, 20, was stopped around 2:30 a.m. on Sunday after an officer said he was speeding and swerving multiple times on Interstate 35 near Moore, Oklahoma, according to KOCO. The officer said he smelled “an odor associated with an alcoholic beverage,” and he later found half of a bottle of vodka and half of a bottle of tequila in the vehicle. Gordon, according to an affidavit obtained by KFOR’s Dylan Buckingham, first told the officer he hadn’t been drinking before later saying he had a single drink.
Gordon reportedly refused to take a field sobriety test multiple times on site. He blew a 0.11 BAC and a 0.10 BAC at the Cleveland County jail nearly 40 minutes later, both of which are over the legal limit to operate a vehicle in Oklahoma.
