So busted. 35-year-old Miami police officer Fausto Lopez told the state trooper he was running late to his second job — that’s not gonna get you off the hook, son.

That's so Raven. Orlando Brown was popped for DUI last night with his pregnant girlfriend in the car with him. I'm thinking Teen Mom would be more appropriate for him these days.
While exiting a cruise ship in Miami on Sunday afternoon, Outkast rapper Big Boi (ne Antwan Patton) was arrested for drug possession.

This guy was arrested after using his skateboard to bash a photographer who attempted to take a shot of his hair. Why he would want to hide such a beautiful mane from the world is a mystery. Hate crimes have been replaced by hair crimes.
