Ree Drummond‘s foster son has been arrested.

The 57-year-old Pioneer Woman star’s son Jamar Goff was booked into Jefferson County Jail in Birmingham, Alabama, on Tuesday, September 15, around 2:30 a.m. local time, according to Us Weekly.

Jamar, 23, was booked on four charges, including unlawful possession of a controlled substance, aggravated assault on a police officer, drug paraphernalia for use or possession and attempting to elude an officer.

His bond was set at $37,000 and as of Wednesday (September 24), he remains in police custody. It’s unclear if Jamar has obtained legal counsel yet.

According to court documents obtained by TMZ, an officer received a call about a suspicious person on the University of Alabama at Birmingham campus. The officer claimed to have found Jamar without a shirt on sleep near a fountain.

When the officer woke him to ask what he was doing on campus, Jamar alleged he was waiting for someone to come and sell him “ice,” which court documents allege is another name for methamphetamine.

Once the officer learned that Jamar had a warrant out for his arrest, the 23-year-old allegedly took off running and ended up at a local hospital where he “used an open-handed palm strike” on an officer.

If you were unaware, Ree and her husband Ladd Drummond became foster parents to Jamar in 2018 when he was a teenager. The couple, who have been married since 1996 share four additional children).

In November 2020 blog post, Ree wrote about how Jamar became a part of her family.

“I’ve never wanted to subject Jamar to more attention than he wanted or needed before he had a chance to settle in and get his bearings in our home. We needed to let things breathe,” Ree wrote. “I’m now writing about Jamar because after a year-and-a-half of living in our house, he is an inextricable part of our wacky family, and it’s become increasingly strange for me not to talk about him. He’s 18 now, which means the state agency restrictions no longer apply—and most notably, he told me he’s tired of feeling like we’re trying to hide him from the world. He’s ready to sing, to dance, to make his debut! Jazz hands, Jamar!”

The last time Ree posted a photo of Jamar on Instagram was back in March 2024 and it’s unclear if they still have a relationship today.
