Andy Dick Arrested on Sex Charges

Andy Dick (42) was arrested at around 2 am this morning in Murrieta, California on suspicion of drug possession and sexual battery. Police said:

"At 0113 hours, Murrieta Police responded to call at Buffalo Wild Wings [restaurant], 40484 Murrieta Hot Springs Rd., Murrieta to investigate an intoxicated male at the location urinating outside the bar and causing a disturbance. Officers arrived and stopped a truck which was leaving the location. Witnesses told the officers one of the truck occupants had sexually battered a 17 year old outside the restaurant and bar."

"The 17 yr old female victim and several witnesses told police that as Andy Dick left the establishment, he approached two females outside the bar. Dick walked up to the 17 year old female victim, grabbed her tank top and bra and pulled them down and exposed her breasts. He then was escorted by several of his friends to a truck which was stopped by arriving police officers in a nearby Sam’s Club a few moments later."

"Andy Dick was in the front passenger seat of the truck. A curbside lineup was conducted and the male was identified by the victim, as well as a witness. During a search incident to arrest, marijuana and Xanax were found in Andy Dick’s pants pockets. Andy Dick was extremely intoxicated at the time of his arrest. He was booked at the Southwest Detention Center."

In May 2004, Dick was arrested on a pot possession charge while attending the Coachella music festival, also in Riverside County.

Dick has been acting badly for a long time. Going to jail would be in his, and everyone else’s, best interest.
