    Adam "Pacman" Jones turned his NFL career around with the Cincinnati Bengals by staying out of trouble and developing into an excellent role player as a slot cornerback and return man, his rollercoaster NFL career appears to have hit another snag Monday.

    ADAm Pacman Jones Tweet:

    "Just got arrested for protecting myself, I will not let this break me or change what I have work so hard for ...."

    Jones' tweet was soon followed up by confirmation from his agent Peter Schaffer, who spoke NFL.com's Albert Breer, Jones plans to turn himself on on Monday.

    Schaffer said the incident occurred while Jones was at bar near Great American Ballpark in Cincinnati on Wednesday for a Reds game, and that two women were causing a problem for him.

    "They were drunk, giving him the business, he was trying to relax," Schaffer said. "They kept pushing, and then they finally came up and said, 'Let's take a picture.' ... He's thinking, 'The last thing I gotta do is take a picture with two drunk girls, so he says no."

    At that point, Schaffer said, Jones turned around and one of them threw a beer bottle at him from three feet away. The agent said Jones then turned and hit one of the women with an open palm, Jones believes security tape from the incident will help exonerate him.

    "I've talked to three or four witnesses who corroborate Adam's story," Schaffer said, adding the witnesses told him that police haven't reached out to him yet. "This is ridiculous, an absolute shame."

    Either way, "open hand" or not, there are better ways of handling assault from drunk snitches..
