According to a witness and two separate reports filed by the Philadelphia Police Department and U.S. Park Rangers and obtained by CSNPhilly.com, Okafor had a gun pointed at him during an argument outside an Old City nightclub on Oct. 4 after 2 a.m.
The latest report has Okafor, 19, trying to use a fake ID at a Philadelphia bar.
In late October, Okafor allegedly presented a fake I.D. at Misconduct Tavern in Center City, according to two sources with knowledge of the situation. Okafor, 19, was refused service, the sources said. One of the sources said he was surprised because Okafor is a big guy and famous and pretty easy to recognize.
Despite the 76ers’ woes this season, the former Young star has been the one bright spot, leading all NBA rookies in scoring with a 17.5 average and minutes at 33 per game.
