Ringo in Jail

Ringo Starr was freaking put in jail. For flipping out at a U.S restaurant called BJ's. Daym. They freaking tasered him!

This is what they said;


"Former Beatles Drummer Ringo Starr was arrested in Houston, Texas this weekend after an incident in a local restaurant.

Starr was enjoying a meal with his wife, Barbara Bach, and a small group of friends at the chain restaurant, BJ’s Restaurant and Brewhouse last Friday night.  The staff called police after Starr became loud and belligerent when he was asked to sign his credit slip.

“He just started rambling, ‘Peace and love.  Peace and looooove.  No more autographs after the 20th of October.  It’s gonna be tossed.  Check the date.’ and then he tore up the check,” says BJ’s employee, Mark Johnson.  “Then he started climbing onto the table and kicking the salt and pepper shakers.”

Pamela MacComber, the manager of the restaurant had had enough.  “A server got some salt in her eye, so we knew it was time to call the authorities.  After that, it was out of our hands.”

“Mr. Starkey was uncooperative with Houston P.D. when they attempted to remove him from the restaurant,” says a police spokesperson.  “Officers on the scene decided that they had no other choice than use a Taser on Mr. Starkey in hopes of preventing him from injuring other patrons or himself.”

Starr was booked into Harris County Jail under suspicion of assault.  His bail was set at ten thousand dollars.

Representatives for Mr. Starr posted bail for the ex-Beatle.  They say he is resting comfortably in a Houston-area hotel, awaiting his arraignment in court later this week."


Oh dear lord. Ringo. They Tasered him! And the fact that he was rambling 'Peace and love.... peace and looooooove' makes it so much worse. 
So, next time you go to BJ's and see a sign that says 'Ringo Starr got tasered in this restaurant' you better believe it.
