Gun-obsessed real estate mogul Patrick Carroll is in hot water again.
Carroll, a Miami resident, was arrested Monday night on suspicion of drunk driving and criminal possession of a weapon after getting out of his vehicle and trying to flee from police in Los Angeles.
A local news helicopter captured the dramatic scene, reporting: “The suspect got out of the vehicle and ran down an embankment but officers were soon able to find him. He was allegedly driving under the influence of alcohol and several weapons were subsequently recovered.”

A representative for Carroll did not respond to a request for comment.
The wealthy developer, who is reportedly in contract to sell his company for around $80 million, has previously made Page Six headlines by partying at celebrity-studded events featuring the likes of Leonardo DiCaprio, Jamie Foxx and Mayor Eric Adams, but he has become plagued by scandal.
In March, Miami police responded to his residence after receiving a report of gunshots heard at his home.
There was also video of Carroll firing what he claimed were blank rounds from a boat.

He was taken into police custody under the Baker Act, a Florida law that allows authorities to take someone in for a psychiatric evaluation if their family or friends are concerned about their safety or the safety of others.
A judge signed a “risk protection order,” forcing Carroll to surrender his guns.
He has also been banned from many of Miami's swankiest restaurants, including the glitzy Carbone, following an incident at another restaurant where he apparently spat on a host when a server asked him to stop making advances to a woman who was on a date with another woman.

In August 2022, he got into a fight with someone at the after-party for a star-studded UNICEF gala on the Italian island of Capri.
Carroll donated $1.5 million to the charity during the event, but later rescinded the donation, calling the organization a “scam” and “not technically UNICEF, but [Capri event’s] “Membership Committee”
In February, he spent a fortune to secure an invitation to luxury brand Tom Ford's Milan fashion show, only to try to return the clothes after the event.
Carole has previously said this is not true and spoke eloquently about the incident, saying, “Fuck you, Page Six!”
