Derek Jeter's night out with friends was once disrupted as cops were called to stop a dangerous situation 

Derek Jeter, a legend for the New York Yankees, had a remarkable baseball career that included multiple World Series championships and several honors.

But the icon's life is still colored by some controversial incidents, though small.

In "The Captain," author Ian O'Connor reveals how a biracial child from Michigan became New York's most adored sports personality.

O'Connor describes one instance in his book:

​

"Tossed rocks at the house windows and the cops were called to the scene."

Derek went on a night out with some friends, borrowed the family Datsun 310 and wound up outside a house where some females were having a sleepover. Even though it didn't raise any concerns, the issue began when a buddy threw rocks at the house windows.

A man came out to confront the boys, and police were called to the scene. As a result of the entire incident, Charles and Dot denied their son access to a car for two months.
