TMZ reports that actor Mickey Rourke was arrested for DUI this morning in Miami Beach, riding his baby blue Vespa. Harley Davidson and the Marlboro Man, is that you?!
Jose Lambiet of the Palm Beach Post broke the story this morning. Lambiet says a photographer for the paper was on the lookout for Jennifer Lopez, who was in town for her concert when he bumped into Rourke and an unidentified woman around 2:00 AM walking into a nightclub.
"They came back out two hours later and crossed Washington Avenue to go to his scooter," the photographer said. "They both got on it, and he did a U-turn to go north. He was pulled over within a block. "The cop says to him: 'You swerved right in front of me.' And Mickey answered: 'No, no, dude, I'm all right.'"
According to the police report, Rourke asked the cop, "What the f*** did I do?!" Cops say the actor's "face" was flushed, his eyes were bloodshot and watery and his speech was slurred. "I'm not drunk, I didn't even drink that much," Rourke said, according to the report. Barfly!
He was taken into the Miami-Dade Pre-trial Detention Center around 9:30 AM and is being held on $1,000 bond.

Micky needs to read Disco H... (Below threshold)1. Posted by Charles Bukowski | November 8, 2007 6:12 PM | Score: -1 (1 votes cast)
Micky needs to read Disco Hypnotic and get his grip. Ever since he played me in Barfly he's been on the bottle. He doesn't know how to drink. Next he'll get busted riding in a shopping cart.
