Lawrence Taylor Mug Shot



Former NFL great for the New York Giants, Lawrence Taylor, considered by some to be the best linebacker ever, was arrested in Miami for leaving the scene of an accident with property damage, which is a second-degree misdemeanor.

Naturally we have provided you Taylor's mug shot from his hit-and-run accident. Taylor was released on $500 bond, an amount that tells you this was not a high profile incident; however celebrity mug shots are high profile incidents regardless of the bond amount. Now LT's mug has been forever added to the mix.

A Florida Highway Patrol spokesperson said that Taylor was involved in a hit-and-run accident on Sunday in Hialeah, Florida. CBS News Crimesider has reported that Taylor told the cops that he thought he hit a guard rail. State troopers reportedly did not conduct a sobriety test.

LT will be one of the first to tell you that he was one of the greatest linebackers of all time, and he was inducted into the NFL football Hall of Fame in 1999. He had also recently been featured on ABC's "Dancing With the Stars."

Walmart Patron Slaps Stranger's Toddler Daughter

Stone Mountain, Georgia, resident, Roger Stephens, allegedly slapped a stranger's two-year-old daughter Monday in a local Walmart for crying too much.

Stephens had been shopping at the Rockbridge Road Walmart in Stone Mountain, which is a suburb of Atlanta, when he apparently grew increasingly annoyed at the continual crying of a two-year-old girl in the store.

The child's mother, Sonya Mathews, told police that her daughter was crying as they walked down one of the aisles.

Just moments later, slightly before noon, Stephens approached the child and Mathews, both of whom he did not know, and allegedly said, "If you don't shut the baby up, I will shut her up for you."

Shortly afterward, Mathews and her daughter were in another aisle, and the girl was still crying. Stephens allegedly grabbed the girl and slapped her on the face. According to Police he hit the child four or five times.

Afterward he allegedly told Mathews, "See, I told you I would shut her up."

Another shopper stepped forward and held Stephens until store security arrived. The police report stated that, before police arrived on the scene, Stephens did apologize to Mathews for hitting her child.

The toddler suffered redness to her face but, otherwise, was uninjured. She was treated at the scene and left with her mother, who later told CBS Atlanta that she forgives Stephens, but she feels he may have mental issues.

Stephens was arrested and is being charged with felony first degree cruelty to children. He is being held without bond at the Gwinnett County Detention Center.

Professor Gate's Neighbor Sides with Police

Henry Louis Gates Jr., the Harvard professor who has cried racism over his arrest at the hands of Sergeant Jim Crowley of the Cambridge, MA, police, has been milking the incident for all of the publicity he can get from it including publicly calling President Obama his "friend." The detail that bugs me more than anything else about this fiasco is that so far, everyone at the scene of the incident, other than Gates, supports the police officer's version of what occurred.

All of the police involved, Sergeant Crowley, Officer Figueroa, Crowley's backup officers Ivey and Graham, and the officer from Harvard University police all support Crowley's version of the incident. Plus they agree that Crowley acted properly in arresting Professor Gates.

Of course people naturally assume that the police will stick together on this issue, so most folks are not lending much credence to the fact that the police all support Crowley.

The woman who called the police in the first place, Lucia Whalen, who is African American, has refused to talk to the media; however, she obviously thought Gates was a criminal breaking into a house or she would not have made the 911 call in the first place. I would say that puts her more on the side of the police than anything else.

We now have another neighbor who witnessed the incident and who also sides with the police. In this short interview from ABC news the neighbor tells the reporter that Professor Gates was "belligerent" when he talked to Sergeant Crowley.



In addition to all of this, Professor Gates and Sergeant Crowley have both agreed to sit down together with President Obama over a beer to discuss the incident. According to the White House this meeting should happen soon.

Warrant Issued for Lindsay Lohan's Arrest

Lindsay Lohan, the 22-year-old movie actor in films like Freaky Friday (2003) and Mean Girls (2004), had a warrant for her arrest issued on Friday.

Beverly Hills Police Department spokesman Lieutenant Mark Rosen said, "The $50,000 warrant issued by the Beverly Hills Superior Court stems from a May 2007 arrest of Miss Lohan for DUI and hit-and-run. The circumstances leading to the issuance of the warrant by the court are not readily available at this time. It is our hope that Miss Lohan will surrender herself so that this matter will be resolved in a timely manner."

Shawn Chapman Holley, Lindsay's attorney, said the warrant was a "misunderstanding."

"Since her case was resolved, Ms. Lohan has been in compliance with all the terms and conditions of her probation and all orders of the court. The warrant issued on Friday was, in our view, born out of a misunderstanding which I am confident I can clear up next week," said Holley.

"I spoke to her attorney this morning. The attorney believes it was just a miscommunication with the court," said Lieutenant Rosen. "She hopes to resolve it in court this coming week. And I'm sure that if it's not resolved in court that we'll work out something with Ms. Lohan to voluntarily surrender."

In May of 2007 Lohan was arrested for driving under the influence after losing control of her vehicle, which ended up on the curb. Police discovered cocaine in her car and subsequent lab tests confirmed that cocaine was also in her system.

Lindsay spent some time in rehab after that, but was arrested again for drunk driving on July 24, 2007. She pled guilty in August 2007, and was sentenced to one day in jail and placed on probation for three years. The one day in jail made headlines at the time since the "one day" ended up to be a total of only 84 minutes in jail because she was released early due to jail overcrowding.

The Los Angeles County District Attorney's Office has a hearing scheduled for 8:30 a.m. Monday morning, March 16, 2009, at a Beverly Hills courthouse.

Police Arrest Mugger that Fist Fights Deaf Elderly Granny

New York City police have arrested a 21-year-old suspected mugger who had a fist fight with an 83-year-old deaf grandmother. Elsie Barretto used only her fists to fight off a young mugger who was 62 years younger than she when he tried to rob her in her New York City apartment building.

Granny Elsie refused to give up her money even after the mugger repeatedly punched her in the face. Elsie said that the mugger followed her into her apartment building as she returned from grocery shopping, but she could not hear him behind her because she is deaf.

They both went onto the elevator and Elsie said hello to him and said "have a nice day." The mugger got off on her floor and then grabbed Elsie in a choke hold throwing her to the floor.

But Elsie Fought back. "When I pushed him, he didn't like it, and he came and beat me more," said Elsie. "I'm tough. I hit him back."

Elsie continued to fight back while the man punched her, and she prevented him from taking the cash in her pockets even though he ripped at her pants.

"I fought. Yes I fought him. I punch him. I don't remember if I scratched him. I don't remember. But I know I beat him and beat him and beat him and kicked him first. That's why he got mad at me because I threw him down. When I threw him he hit himself on the wall and he got mad and started beating me more, beating me more," she said.

The mugger finally gave up when he heard someone coming.

Elsie received a black eye, some broken dentures and cuts and stitches inside her mouth after being treated in a local hospital.

"I told the cops, if you find him, bring him back to me." Elsie said. "I want them to bring him so I can punch him and ask why he did that to me, and I want to break his nose or break his teeth."

21-year-old Anthony Jackson, of East Harlem, turned himself in to police after pictures of him from the apartment building's security camera were broadcast on the local news.

Kanye West Arrested in LA then Released on Bond

Rapper/producer Kanye West and his bodyguard were arrested at the Los Angeles airport for felony vandalism after they allegedly destroyed the cameras of two paparazzi who were trying to photograph him.

The man in the hooded grey sweats in the video is allegedly Kanye. The man in red is his bodyguard and road manager, Don Crowley. West and Crowley were changing planes at LAX while en route to Hawaii, when the altercation took place prior to 8 AM on Thursday, September 11, 2008

So far, the only people talking to the press are the paparazzi who filed charges against West and Crowley. It is said that the cameras destroyed during the incident each cost as much as $10,000.


<
West never showed his face in the video, however, the paparazzi, who reportedly worked for TMZ.com, claim that the hooded man is West.

The Associated Press is reporting that a witness, Charles Davis who works at the airport soliciting charity donations, saw the entire incident.

Davis claims that the 31-year-old West was "attacked" by the paparazzi and that West was merely "defending himself."

Davis said, "I talk to him all the time. He's a very nice gentleman. Very nice. He gives good donations to help children. He's got a good, kind heart. I've gotten his autograph several times. I just don't see why he was arrested. The man just put the camera too close to his face. I don't blame him."

Davis also said that he didn't think the camera was totally destroyed. "It was just knocked out of the man's hand," said Davis.

West and Crowley were booked at a nearby Los Angeles police station and West was released on $20,000 bond.

Kanye West has won numerous Grammies and other awards during his career which hit the big time in 2004 with his album The College Dropout, which won Best Rap Album Grammy that year.

He also won Best Rap Album Grammy in 2005 for his album, Late Registration, and in 2007 for Graduation.

Despite his commercial success, West is also known for having a quick temper and speaking his mind on controversial topics. In 2005 during a telethon raising funds for hurricane Katrina victims, West said on the air that "George Bush doesn't care about black people."

Thursday's arrest is the first time, however, that West has let his temper escalate above the verbal level.

The first video shows the actual altercation at the airport:

Kid Rock's Mug Shot Released After Atlanta Arrest

Atlanta - Kid Rock was arrested on a battery charge in Atlanta early Sunday morning, and Atlanta police also released his mug shot on the left. Rock and his group had played at the Tabernacle concert hall in Atlanta earlier on Saturday night.

Rock and his entourage were dining at a Waffle House restaurant when another restaurant customer, Harlan Adkins, approached Rock’s group because Adkins knew a woman in Rock’s group.

Adkins’ discussion with the woman grew into a fracas that continued in the restaurant’s parking lot. During the resulting melee, Adkins reportedly broke a restaurant window.

Rock’s tour bus left the parking lot, but was pulled over by Atlanta police just a short time later. Kid Rock, whose real name is Robert Ritchie, and five others involved in the confrontation were arrested and charged with simple battery.

After posting $1,000 bail, Rock was released around 5 PM Sunday evening to a crowd of Rock‘s fans gathered around the DeKalb County jailhouse.
.
The 36 year old Rock was also arrested last month in Las Vegas for a confrontation he had with rocker Tommy Lee at the MTV Video Music Awards.

Rock is no stranger to police blotters. He was also arrested in Nashville in 2005 and in Michigan in 1991 and 1997.
