Jordan Davis narrowly escapes arrest in Canada | Music City Minute

Jordan Davis just played a show in Canada. Getting back into the U.S. was the hard part. Jordan Davis has a new touring story, and it’s a good one. After headlining a show at Caesars Windsor in Ontario last Friday, the “Buy Dirt” singer’s tour bus was stopped at the Canadian border by U.S. Customs and Border Patrol. Officers pulled Davis off the bus, brought him inside and got serious fast. “I need you to be real serious with me, man,” one officer told him. “Are you in some trouble in Indiana?” Davis told them he’d never even been arrested. Turns out, there’s another Jordan Davis in Indiana wanted on criminal charges, and the name flagged him in the system. “Somebody in Indiana named Jordan Davis is in some trouble,” he joked in an Instagram video. Things got tense for a minute. Officers told him they weren’t going to put him in handcuffs as long as he walked with them. “And that’s when I was like, whoa,” Davis said. “I just kind of got quiet because they were pretty serious.” Eventually, one of the agents recognized him and asked, “Are you that country singer?” The officer then got worried Davis would go back on stage and bash Border Patrol on social media. Davis laughed it off and said, “Nah dude, just let me get out of here.” The best part? His crew on the bus had no idea what happened. They thought Border Patrol just wanted a photo. Davis walked back on and told them, “I almost got locked up, cuz.” He captioned the video quote, “Keeping the borders safe, one Jordan Davis at a time. Much love Canada.”
