Jerry Buss’ Son Arrested for Intoxication

With the start of the NBA season just three weeks away there is some drama surrounding the Lakers this morning, but it has nothing to do with basketball.

Longtime Lakers owner Dr. Jerry Buss received a bit of bad news Saturday morning with the knowledge that his son Jesse had been arrested for intoxication in Lexington, Kentucky.

“Lexington Jail officials say Buss has bonded out of jail. Lexington Police were called to the area of South Broadway and W. Maxwell Street around 3:39 Friday morning for a report of a man laying on the ground. That’s where officials say Buss was picked up and charged.”

Special thanks to Tamara Evans of WDRB News in Louisville for the report.
