Upon arrival, police said they found Jordy asleep at the wheel of an idling 2021 Hyundai Genesis. Police said he was hunched to his right side and had a firearm in his hand.
According to reports, police removed Jordy from the vehicle, and said he seemed “clammy” and appeared to be “lethargic, had slow movements, and that his eyes were glassy and bloodshot.” Police said they also detected an odor of alcohol from Jordy, as well.
Police added that Jordy was read his rights and that he’d declined to have blood drawn for testing. He was found not to have a valid conceal carry permit for the firearm, said reports.
