Josh Jackson was arrested in Miami this past weekend and faces a felony charge of escape and a misdemeanor charge of resisting arrest.

Jackson attempted to enter the VIP too many times without a proper pass. He was reportedly handcuffed by police and then ran away from the officers.

Jackson agreed to enter a diversion program in 2017 before entering the NBA to settle a misdemeanor count of criminal property damage stemming from a confrontation with a Kansas women's basketball player in 2016.
