Iowa wrestler Jordan Williams has been charged with operating while under the influence, according to Johnson County court records.
This is Williams' second OWI charge, according to court documents, with the first coming in Payne County, Oklahoma, in August 2023.
The incident occurred Sept. 7. According to a police affidavit, an officer approached a vehicle that had been running with its lights on for "at least" two hours in a parking lot/garage at 180 E. Burlington St. in Iowa City. The officer found Williams unconscious with an open container of alcohol in his lap.
The police affidavit states that after Williams woke up, the officer observed an alcohol smell, slurred speech and bloodshot eyes, as well as Williams showing impairment in standardized field sobriety tests. Williams refused a preliminary breath test, according to the police affidavit.
This is Williams' second off-the-mat incident since committing to Iowa in 2025. On June 14, 2025, while Williams was publicly committed to Iowa but not yet signed, he was involved in an incident at ReUnion Brewery in Iowa City. He and his attorney later agreed to an amended plea of a simple misdemeanor charge for disorderly conduct.

The fallout from owner Jed York's arrest continues to hang over the San Francisco 49ers, but NBC Sports Bay Area's Matt Maiocco doesn't believe it will cost the York family the franchise.
York was charged with two misdemeanors — disorderly conduct and possession of criminal tools — after responding to an undercover ad on what was described as a known prostitution website. He received a two-day jail sentence and a $1,150 fine. NFL commissioner Roger Goodell confirmed at the league's preseason owners' meeting that the incident is being reviewed under the personal conduct policy. York did not attend the meeting, a decision that wasn't surprising given how recent the arrest was.
Speaking on KNBR, Maiocco addressed the inevitable speculation about a forced sale directly, pointing to how deliberately the York family structured its ownership just two years ago.
"I can't see that. Jed bought equity from his mom in order to become the principal owner. Yes, the 49ers raised a lot of money by selling off around 9.7% of the organization, but when they transferred ownership officially over to Jed as the principal owner, the idea was this was a move made to ensure that it remained in the family," Maiocco said. "I would imagine the long-term plan is for Jed to hand it over to one of his sons or keep it in the family. I don't think this [arrest] will impact that. I think that there will be some discipline by commissioner Roger Goodell. I think it can happen sooner rather than later because the legal process has run its course. I would expect a fine and even a suspension, where he has to stay away from the team for a certain amount of time."
York became the 49ers' principal owner in March 2024, purchasing additional equity from his family specifically to formalize what had effectively been his role since taking over as CEO in 2010. At the time, York did frame the move as a long-term succession plan, saying it was "reflective of how we've operated" and intended to keep the team "in our family for generations to come." His mother, Denise DeBartolo York, and father, Dr. John York, remained co-chairs.

An incident during which England bowler Brydon Carse was handcuffed outside a nightclub is being investigated by Derbyshire Police, who say they are looking into allegations of **** ault.
Images circulating on social media on Sunday showed Carse in handcuffs and surrounded by police officers while the pace bowler was on a night out in Derby on Saturday.
The 31-year-old was briefly arrested on suspicion of being drunk and disorderly.
The England and Wales Cricket Board (ECB) said the incident would be investigated by the Cricket Regulator and, as a result, Carse was removed from the England squad for the second Test against Pakistan.
On Monday, Derbyshire Police said a man had been briefly detained outside Molly Malone's bar, before being released.

San Francisco 49ers owner Jed York skipped Wednesday's NFL owners' meeting in Atlanta following his arrest in an Ohio prostitution sting. CEO Al Guido represented the franchise as the league reviews whether York violated its personal conduct policy.
York was arrested Sunday in East Palestine, Ohio, after police said he responded to an undercover prostitution advertisement. Prosecutors later reduced the prostitution charge to disorderly conduct, and York pleaded no contest to that charge and possessing criminal tools.

Since training camp got underway, the San Francisco 49ers have had a rough go of things. Injuries have kept popping up on the roster, delaying their momentum for the start of the season. But now, they've also been hit with a huge scandal.
Their longtime owner, Jed York, was charged and subsequently arrested in East Palestine, Ohio, earlier this week. As bodycam footage of the arrest made its way online, fans were stunned by how it all played out.
The incident came to light when York was charged with misdemeanor counts of engaging in prostitution and possessing criminal tools. However, as part of the plea agreement, the former was reduced to disorderly conduct.
The team told the media, "As this is a legal matter, which has been resolved, we will not be providing any further comment at this time," even as the NFL is reviewing the matter.
But TMZ, of course, finally received footage of York's arrest. As the clip went viral online, NFL reporters were left understandably stunned.

"Yes, it's being reviewed under the personal conduct policy," Goodell said, via Josh Dubow of the ******* ociated Press. "We'll do that and when there's something to be reported, we'll talk."

SANTA CLARA, Calif. (AP) — Commissioner Roger Goodell said the NFL is looking into whether San Francisco 49ers owner Jed York will be punished for violating the league's personal conduct policy after he was caught in a prostitution sting in Ohio.
"It's being reviewed under the personal conduct policy," Goodell said Wednesday at the owners' meetings in Atlanta. "We'll do that and when there's something to be reported we'll talk."
York was arrested in a mobile home park by the Mahoning Valley Human Trafficking Task Force after police said he was attempting to pay $160 for ***** with a woman he believed to be a prostitute.
York was booked into jail and was released after posting a $5,000 bond. York was initially charged with engaging in prostitution, but prosecutors amended that to disorderly conduct. He pleaded no contest to that charge and to possessing criminal tools for using his phone to respond to the an undercover online prostitution advertisement.
He was sentenced to one day in jail for both offenses to be served concurrently and was credited with one day served when he pleaded no contest. He also was fined $1,150. Police seized the $160 from York and that was later given to the human trafficking task force as part of the plea. York also completed an online course.

Josh Tongue has revealed that direct-speaking England captain Joe Root left the squad under no illusions regarding expected behavioural standards as they attempt to clean up their public image.
Root was clearly annoyed on Tuesday while responding to the latest off-field controversy surrounding the squad, describing himself as "hacked off" following an incident where fast bowler Brydon Carse was briefly arrested outside a venue in Derby on suspicion of being drunk and disorderly.
Carse was dropped from the squad pending an inquiry by the Cricket Regulator, leading Root to hold a 'robust' team discussion prior to Thursday's second Rothesay Test against Pakistan, setting out his expectations just a fortnight after making his return as skipper.
Tongue insists that the message was received loud and clear following ten months regularly disrupted by unwelcome stories concerning team discipline off the pitch.
"We had a chat before training yesterday as Joe said. It was a very good conversation and he made it clear what he expects from us," he said.

ESPN might not want to cover San Francisco 49ers owner Jed York being arrested on prostitution charges, but Shannon Sharpe has no issue with it.
To be clear, Sharpe has no issue covering it, he also has no issue with York allegedly attempting to pay for ******* ual activity. York was arrested Sunday in East Palestine, Ohio and initially charged with engaging in prostitution, but it was later amended to disorderly conduct. The 49ers owners pleaded no contest to the reduced charges after allegedly responding to a prostitution ad, offering to pay $140 for ******* at an Ohio trailer park.
"Ain't nothing wrong with that," Sharpe said with a smirk. "Come on, man. You think the man cause he's worth a billion dollars he don't want to wet his whistle?"
Nightcap co-host Joe Johnson seemed rather disgusted by the thought of a wealthy person going to a trailer park with $140 for ******* . On the contrary, Chad Johnson claimed he was familiar with the area where York allegedly went to receive ******* ual favors, implying he has been there for similar reasons himself. Sharpe was eager to add, "sometimes you like them sleazy."
"They the ones that got all the moves," Sharpe insisted. "Remember I told you, 'She had more moves than a $100 hooker?' Them the ones that got the moves, the $5,000 ones don't do nothing but model."

Leeds and Rangers co-owner Jed York has been jailed in Ohio after being arrested for soliciting prostitution.
The 46-year-old, who is also the owner of the San Francisco 49ers, was convicted of disorderly conduct and possessing criminal tools after pleading no contest to two charges.
In the Ohio legal system, a no contest plea means a defendant accepts a conviction without formally admitting guilt.
York was sentenced to one day in jail on each offence, to be served concurrently, and was given credit for time already served.
York was fined $150 for disorderly conduct and $1,000 for possessing criminal tools.

Clemson football defensive tackle Vic Burley was found by police on Aug. 22 asleep in his truck with the engine running at 2:15 a.m. and showed signs of impairment that led to his arrest, according to an incident report posted by Tigers Illustrated, Clemson's On3 website.
Burley was charged with public disorderly conduct and then suspended indefinitely by the Tigers and coach Dabo Swinney.
According to the report, a Clemson Police officer stopped at the scene when he noticed another person, identified as a male Clemson student, lying in the grass next to the truck on Calhoun Drive. The student stated he was waiting for a friend to give him a ride with his fiancée because they both had been drinking. The student said the truck was his friend's.
The police officer knocked on the windows of the car, received no response, but noticed the shoulder of a person asleep in the driver's seat. A second officer arrived, and they opened the driver's side door, where Burley was found asleep. A "strong odor" of marijuana was detected.
The report said Burley did not initially wake up when the door opened, nor when the truck was turned off. But after Burley woke up, he was unsteady on his feet as he got out of the truck, slurred his speech and "seemed disoriented." His eyes were also drooping, he struggled to remove his identification from his wallet and was slow to respond and did not directly answer questions.

Jed York's weekend arrest wasn't the first time San Francisco 49ers ownership has found itself on the wrong side of the law – though, ironically, those past legal missteps are largely why York finds himself in such a prominent position now.
York, 46, who pleaded no contest Monday, Aug. 24, to two misdemeanor charges of disorderly conduct and possessing criminal tools in Columbiana County, Ohio, after a charge of "engaging in prostitution" was reduced, was, until recently, the NFL's youngest principal owner. That track largely became available to him starting in 2000, when his uncle, Pro Football Hall of Famer Eddie DeBartolo Jr., relinquished control of the team to his sister Denise DeBartolo York (Jed York's mother) and brother-in-law John York (Jed York's father).
Prior to that, DeBartolo was widely perceived as an owner whom stars throughout the league wanted to play for given his demand for championship football – the 49ers won five Super Bowls between the 1981 and 1994 seasons, none since – but also his willingness to spare no expense while caring for the members of his roster. (The Niners would eventually be hit with nearly $1 million in fines and forfeited a fifth-round draft pick in 2001 plus a third-rounder in 2002 after the NFL found them guilty of circumventing the salary cap, which came into existence in 1994, during a 1999 investigation.)
But DeBartolo's legal issues away from football ultimately drove him from the league. He pleaded guilty to one felony charge of failing to report an alleged extortion attempt in 1998 amid his attempt to obtain a riverboat gambling license in Louisiana. Former state governor Edwin Edwards allegedly attempted to extract $400,000 from DeBartolo amid his bid for the license. The NFL fined DeBartolo $1 million and suspended him for the 1999 season due to his involvement with Edwards, who was imprisoned on racketeering charges in 2002.
As for DeBartolo, who entered the Hall of Fame in 2016 and remains close to his former players – he presented former Niners coach Bill Walsh plus team and NFL legends Joe Montana, Jerry Rice, Fred Dean and Charles Haley as they went into Canton – he never returned to the team as its controlling owner following the suspension.

San Francisco 49ers owner Jed York was arrested in Ohio over the weekend for trying to pay a prostitute a little over $100, according to police.
York, a 46-year-old married executive, was taken into custody Sunday at a trailer park in East Palestine and was initially charged with engaging in prostitution, but prosecutors amended the charge to disorderly conduct. The NFL owner is originally from Youngstown, Ohio, about a 30-minute drive from where he was arrested.
He ended up pleading no contest to misdemeanor charges of disorderly conduct and possessing criminal tools.
York's arrest came after he answered an ad on a known prostitution website in Columbiana County and "arranged to have ******* ual activity with the female in exchange for $140.00," the California Post reported, citing court documents.
He then went to the trailer park to meet up with the woman, and an agent from the Mahoning Valley Human Trafficking Task Force found York had his cellphone on him "which was used to arrange the criminal act," according to the documents.

The San Francisco 49ers are looking to get back to the top of the NFC after having injuries completely devastate their chances at ***** le contention over the last couple of seasons. Unfortunately, the franchise is now dealing with a significant off-the-field distraction.
According to WKBN, Niners owner John "Jed" York was arrested in East Palestine, Ohio, over the weekend and was found guilty of two misdemeanor charges.
York reportedly "pleaded no contest Monday morning to misdemeanor charges of disorderly conduct and possessing criminal tools" after being arrested on Sunday. He posted a $5,000 bond.
The police report filed the time and location of the arrest as 9: 35 a.m. at Wheat Hill Mobile Home Community off State Route 170.
Court records indicate that York was sentenced to two days in the Columbiana County Jail, to be served concurrently, with credit for a day served, and was ordered to pay $1150 in fines. A phone that was seized from the businessman was ordered to be returned, and $160 seized from him has been forfeited to the Mahoning Valley Human Trafficking Task Force.

A viral middle school football clip in Tennessee has turned into a juvenile court case, school sanctions and a dispute between two families over what happened before a 16-year-old spectator ran onto the field.
Addison Hunnicutt faces ******* ault and disorderly conduct allegations after entering the field during an Aug. 18 game between South Middle School and Cornersville Middle School in Winchester and tackling a 13-year-old South Middle player. Video of the incident spread widely online.
Hunnicutt does not deny running onto the field. She told NewsChannel 5 that she believed the other player was hurting her younger brother and that no one was stopping it.
Her own mother has acknowledged that running onto the field was inappropriate. But Hunnicutt, her family and her attorney argue that the short viral clip begins too late to explain why she acted, while school officials and law enforcement are focused on the fact that a spectator entered the field and struck a middle school player.
The game was being played at Franklin County High School, where South Middle plays its home games. WSMV reported that South Middle scored a touchdown and extra point at about 8 p.m. before two players became involved in a scuffle near the end zone. Video showed referees throwing flags as the players began moving away from the confrontation.

Japan and the US jolted the yen out of a historic slide. US and global stocks keep pressing toward records.
The US dollar versus the yen (JPY=X) fell from nearly 164 to as low as 155 after ***** an acted on Thursday and coordinated with the US on Friday. (Because the below chart tracks dollars per yen, a falling line means the yen is strengthening.)
It was the first joint currency intervention since 2011 and the first time the US has stepped in to strengthen the yen since 1998.
Japan kept interest rates near zero for decades while rates elsewhere moved much higher. That gap pushed money toward higher-yielding currencies and steadily weakened the yen.
Now ***** anese rates are rising and the currency is adjusting, leaving authorities to manage the transition without allowing it to become disorderly. The US 10-year Treasury (^TNX) still yields about 1.8 percentage points more than its ***** anese counterpart, but that gap has been cut roughly in half since early 2025.

Aug 2 (Reuters) - U.S. Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent said on Sunday he will not hesitate to repeat a U.S. and ****** anese coordinated foreign exchange intervention that countered disorderly yen movements and urged that a Federal Reserve backstop for foreign central banks and monetary authorities be "upsized."
Bessent indicated in a social media posting on X that the Fed's Foreign and International Monetary Authorities lending facility was used in the coordinated action on Friday, which was confirmed by ****** an's finance ministry and President Donald Trump.
"The FIMA Repo Facility is an important backstop. We should encourage it to be upsized in the coming months," Bessent said.
Created by the Fed during the COVID-19 pandemic crisis, the FIMA Repo Facility allows countries that keep Treasury securities on deposit at the New York Fed to get up to $60 billion in U.S. dollar loans for up to seven days. The loans are offered at a rate typically above the open-market repo rate, so the expectation is that its use would be limited to times of market stress.

The semiconductor sell-off has punished investors across the board. Leverage has made the damage far harder to recover from.
The iShares Semiconductor ETF (SOXX) has fallen roughly 25% from its June 22 peak while the Direxion Daily Semiconductor Bull 3X Shares (SOXL), a leveraged ETF, has plunged nearly two-thirds over the same stretch.
The latest slide is part of a chip-stock crash that the rest of the market has largely absorbed.
The leverage unwind intensified overnight after SK Hynix (SKHY) reported earnings, sending South Korea's Kospi (^KS11) down as much as 13% before dip buyers cut the loss to 6%. Goldman Sachs traders still saw buyers stepping into memory stocks, suggesting the rout remains disorderly rather than capitulatory, even as the sell-off triggered a record wave of trading halts.
It would be easy to ******* ume that SOXL should be down three times the SOXX loss of 25%, or 75%. SOXL did not malfunction. The fund is designed to deliver three times the daily return of the NYSE Semiconductor Index.

A Fort Worth Police officer ticketed a preacher in late June, claiming the content of his speech was offensive. This week the Department of Justice's Civil Rights Division launched an inquiry into the incident to determine if the officer violated the First Amendment.
The widely circulated video of the confrontation shows an officer and a protester during the Trinity Pride Fest on June 27. "If someone is offended by your talking, then we have a problem," said Officer Sara Stogner.
"That's a constitutional violation of our rights," responds David Grisham, a street preacher and retired federal law enforcement officer. The two continue to argue when Stogner **** erts, "OK, then I'll write you the ticket, and we'll go from there."
"Wait, you're going to ticket us for offensive speech?" the cameraman asks incredulously. To which the officer confidently responds, "Yes, absolutely."
Stogner continues to claim she can ticket the two men for disorderly conduct "if someone complains that your language or what you're saying is offensive."
But that's not how the First Amendment works, according to legal experts. "The First Amendment does not allow government officials to shut down speech simply on account of it being 'offensive,'" said Brennan VanderVeen, program counsel at the Foundation for Individual Rights and Expression. "The government can restrict certain types of conduct or restrict noise above a certain volume level," he continued, but citing someone because people are offended by the content of protected speech is "precisely what the First Amendment does not allow."

Thousands of Knicks fans gathered outside Madison Square Garden Friday night to watch Game 2 of the NBA Finals, but celebrations after the team's win led to multiple arrests and an injured police officer, according to the NYPD.
Police estimate approximately 6,500 people attended the watch party outside the arena.
The NYPD said the crowd became increasingly disorderly throughout the evening. Officers made an arrest for **** ault and for individuals climbing light poles before the game ended.
Following the Knicks' victory, police said multiple people refused orders to leave the area, blocked traffic along Seventh and Eighth avenues from West 31st Street to West 35th Street, and climbed on food vendor carts, light poles and subway entrances.
According to police, one person jumped over a barrier into a restricted area. When an officer attempted to remove the individual, the person allegedly punched the officer in the face multiple times, causing lacerations that required medical treatment. The officer was later treated and released.
