LEBRON JAMES' MOM "BATTERED" MIAMI VALET: COPS

DRUNK

DUNK

BASKETBALL superstar LeBron James' mom is feeling the heat after she was dunked in jail for slamming a valet at a swanky Miami hotel.
Stumbling Gloria James asked valet, Sorel Rockfeller to get her car for her but after he brought it over, she refused to get in for more than half-an-hour.
But when he handed them back to the valet cashier at the posh Fontainebleu Hotel, the high strung mom: "struck the victim with an open hand across the right side of the face," a police report
says. 
James then fell to the ground after losing her balance, reports the station.
Police said that she had bloodshot eyes and a "strong odor of alcohol on her breath."

Once she arrived at the police station, officers said that James was uncooperative.
She was processed and released to Miami Heat executive Steve Stowe, according to WFOR.
It is not James' first run-in with the law. In Jan. 2006, she was arrested in Akron, Ohio for driving while intoxicated and disorderly conduct, the station reports.
"You have to move forward," LeBron James told the station Thursday after the latest incident.
"It is my life and there's certain things you have to deal with. You try not to let it be a distraction. I have a job to do still."
