Oklahoma State football running back Ollie Gordon II was arrested on accusations of driving under the influence early on Sunday, The Oklahoman has confirmed.
As first reported by Tulsa’s News On 6 on Monday night — citing a probable cause affidavit from the Oklahoma Highway Patrol — Gordon was pulled over on Interstate 35 near SW 19th Street in Moore, south of Oklahoma City, after a trooper reported Gordon driving 82 mph in a 65 mph speed limit zone and twice swerving in and out of his lane.
According to the officer’s report obtained by The Oklahoman, the trooper who pulled Gordon over at roughly 2:30 a.m. reported smelling “an odor associated with an alcoholic beverage” from Gordon, who is 20 years old. Gordon reportedly denied drinking, saying he had been around friends who were. He then refused to take a field sobriety test before telling the trooper he had consumed one alcoholic beverage, the report shows.
