Former WWE star and current Ring of Honor Producer Adam Carlson Birch aka Joey Mercury, 39 years old, was arrested on Saturday morning 9/1 in Schaumburg, IL, where he was in town to work as a Producer on the “All In” PPV.
The Schaumburg Police Department confirmed to many sources they “had contact” with Birch at 6:58 AM outside of 50 North Martindale Road, which is the address of The Marriot Schaumburg.
authorities were notified of Birch sleeping in his car outside the hotel. They approached Birch and after running his personal information, discovered he was wanted on an outstanding warrant in Orange County, Florida and was taken into custody.
The Schaumburg Police Department confirmed there are no pending charges against Birch in the State of Illinois, but he is currently being held on $2,500 bail at the Cook County Department of Corrections in advance of a Tuesday 9/4 court date, which may result in Birch being extradited back to Florida.
Birch had been involved in the planning of “All In”, including helping to put together the pre-show battle royal and work the gorilla position, but after his arrest, others stepped in to handle Birch’s duties.
