Celebrity Justice
Mickey Rourke Busted ... on a Vespa!!

Actor Mickey Rourke was arrested for DUI this morning in Miami Beach, riding his blue-green 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 local paparazzo 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 photog 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 booked into the Miami-Dade Pre-trial Detention Center around 9:30 AM and is being held on $1,000 bond.

Let's hope he doesn't get sentenced to 9 1/2 weeks!

61. Is getting a DUI the latest trend in Hollywood? It seems like they're all driving drunk just so they can get some press. Or they're trying to show that their careers arent too bad -- at least no one can say, "They couldn't get arrested in this town."

69.

How much extra does it cost the police department to have a 500 lbs. officer doing patrols?
With the price of gas these days the one officer probably weighs in as much as two. Think of all the wasted gas. What if Rourke ran? Could this doughnut filled cop run a block if he had to? A DUI on a VESPA? This country has turned into Wet Blanket Heaven.

70. As you age you either maintain your face or body. I guess Mickey, since he was never a pretty boy in the first place, focused on his body instead.
