Nicholas Cage arrested

[Liberal_in_LA]

Actor Nicolas Cage was arrested after he got drunk in the city's French Quarter and argued in the street with his wife over whether a house they were in front of was theirs, police said Saturday.

The couple was in front of a home that Cage insisted they were renting, police said. When she said it wasn't theirs, Cage grabbed her arm, according to a police news release.

Cage started hitting vehicles and tried to get into a taxi, police said. An officer saw that Cage was drunk and told him to get out of the cab. Cage then started yelling at the officer.

The actor has been booked on charges of domestic abuse battery, disturbing the peace and public drunkenness. He was released on $11,000 bond Saturday.

19. So, you can't get into a taxi drunk? I thought you were supposed

to take a cab when you are drunk.

Now if only someone would arrest a few of the thieves on Wall St. or a couple of war criminals.

[JI7]

20. i don't think it was only because he was drunk but the mess he caused

and they said domestic abuse.

[RichGirl]

24. In a tweet....

Charlie Sheen said Nick Cage was one of his two best friends.

[petronius]

27. So who was right? Was it their house, or not?

:shrug:

[Rex]

28. Good it was way past time to arrest him for such horrible acting

too bad it had to come to this. I remember the Raising Arizona days.
