Cincinnati radio personality arrested in NKY

CINCINNATI (WXIX) - A Cincinnati radio personality was arrested over the weekend in Northern Kentucky, according to Campbell County Detention Center Major Zachary Smith.

Jonathan “JonJon” Curl is accused of not maintaining insurance, careless driving and operating a vehicle under the influence of alcohol, the major said.

Curl, the host of “JonJon and Friends” at KISS 107.1, was arrested around 12:30 a.m. Sunday by the Fort Thomas Police Department, Smith explained.

Attorney Brandon Voelker is representing Curl and talked with FOX19 NOW about the charges.

Voelker explained that Curl was at his parents’ home the evening before his arrest.

Curl’s attorney did not say if the radio host took a breathalyzer, but said, “We look forward to seeing this thing through the court system.”

He has since been released on his own recognizance, the major added.

FOX19 NOW has reached out to Curl, KISS 107.1 and iHeartMedia for comment. We have not heard back.

Before joining KISS 107.1, Curl was a host at Q102 before “abruptly” leaving in July 2020, according to WVXU.
