The officers eventually subdued Gordon and placed him under arrest. They
found a folding knife clipped to Gordon's pocket and a stun gun and brass
knuckles in his backpack, Conklin said.

Gordon was arrested on charges including carrying a dangerous weapon,


second-degree threatening and interfering with an officer.

He was taken to the police detention center and then to a hospital for a mental
health evaluation, Conklin said. Gordon was released late Tuesday on $10,000
bond, he said.

A message seeking comment was left with Gordon's attorney.

In October, Gordon was charged with punching his son at New York's
LaGuardia Airport. In November, he was charged with a misdemeanor in
Chicago for allegedly punching a McDonald's security guard.

Gordon, who played collegiately at Connecticut, was drafted by the Chicago


Bulls in 2004 and played 11 seasons in the NBA with Chicago, Detroit,
Charlotte and Orlando, most recently in the 2014-15 season with the Magic. His
best season was 2006-07, when he averaged 21.4 points and 3.6 assists for the
Bulls.

Tuesday, the day Gordon was arrested, was also his 40th birthday.
