Jimmy Uso was arrested recently in Detroit for disorderly conduct and obstruction. According to a report from TMZ, WWE Superstar and Jimmy’s wife, Naomi, was driving the wrong way on a one-way street and was pulled over in Detroit when an altercation with police ensued.

Police said the car “reeked of booze” so they asked Naomi out of the car. Jimmy allegedly got out of the vehicle as well after being asked to stay inside by police. He is then said to have taken off his jacket and shirt before “squaring up” as if he wanted to fight the officer.
The officer then took out his taser and Jimmy is said to have begun complying with their commands.
Jimmy was handcuffed, taken to jail, and would later post bond. The Usos are scheduled to take on the Miz and Shane McMahon for the Smackdown tag-team championships Sunday at Elimination Chamber.
WWE issued a brief statement regarding Jimmy Uso’s arrest, “Jonathan Fatu is responsible for his own personal actions.”

Jey Uso was charged with DWI in Texas following a WWE live event in January last year as well.
