I guess this counts as news and therefore belongs here ....
My good friend and fellow comic friend Duff isn't doing a show this year but he likes to help out so he agreed to put some posters up on bollards for some other shows, and he was happily sticking some posters up when some cops approached him. Oh whoops, that's no bollard, that's a news vendor's stall that just looks like a bollard when it's all closed up. The fact that it was covered with about a hundred other posters didn't help. Honest mistake. I'm not sure what he said to them exactly but they decide to drag him off to the nearest police station in handcuffs, where they throw him into a holding cell for quite some time with his hands still cuffed behind his back. He decides that the best course of action is to sing every single show tune he can think of at the top of his voice. They slap him with a $200 fine and eventually let him go.
Dragged off in handcuffs and thrown into a cell for half the night for just putting up a few posters? Hmmm. D'you think he mouthed off at the wrong cops?
