Bree Walker Arrested for DUI ... Her Pit Bull Goes to Pokey Too

Published | Updated

Bree freed her pup Petey after she got out of jail. We're told she had to pay $100 to get him out of Animal Control custody.

Bree Walker, a famous 80s news anchor and reporter ... was busted for DUI in Orange County, CA -- and her poor dog was also taken into custody ... TMZ has learned.

Anaheim police arrested Walker around 12:30 AM Wednesday after she was initially pulled over for running a red light.

Police smelled booze ... put her through a field sobriety test -- which they say she failed -- and 61-year-old Walker was taken to jail.

Law enforcement sources tell us Walker's pit bull Petey was in the car with her, but since Bree lives in L.A. County ... no one was available to pickup the dog. We're told animal control took custody of Petey.

Walker -- who was once married to famed sportscaster Jim Lampley -- was booked for misdemeanor DUI, and released a few hours later ... aka once she sobered up.

Unclear at this point if she sprung Petey yet.

Walker worked local news in New York, L.A., and San Diego -- and did a stint in rehab for booze a few years ago.

Born with a congenital condition called syndactylism -- a fusing of fingers and/or toes -- Walker was also a famous advocate for the disabled.

Ray Rice 86'd from Charity Event Over Domestic Violence Arrest

Published | Updated

Ray Rice has been scratched from a charity event to benefit abused animals ... after organizers decided the circumstances surrounding Ray's domestic violence arrest would be too big of a distraction.

Rice had been scheduled to appear at a kickoff party for the Maryland Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals' kickoff party on Friday ... but he's since been replaced by Baltimore Ravens teammate Haloti Ngata.

A rep for the MDSPCA told the Baltimore Sun the decision was mutual between the org. and Rice because "they didn't want to take the focus off the animals and the cause."

Of course, Ray's been the center of a media tidal wave after TMZ Sports posted footage showing the running back dragging his seemingly unconscious fiancee out of an elevator at an Atlantic City casino following an alleged domestic incident early Saturday morning.

Ray Rice Dragging Unconscious Fiancee After Alleged Mutual Attack [Video]

Published | Updated

2:01 PM PT -- According to a court summons issued in New Jersey, Rice is accused of knocking Palmer out cold on the night of the attack by "striking her with his hand" inside the casino.

TMZ Sports has obtained footage of Baltimore Ravens running back Ray Rice dragging his fiancee (who appears to be out cold) out of an elevator in an Atlantic City casino ... moments after cops say they attacked each other on the property.

The footage was shot on February 15th ... right before Rice and his fiancee Janay Palmer were both arrested for assault at the Revel Casino. Cops say they have video which proved both parties attacked each other.

But before the arrest, Ray can be seen trying to lift and move a seemingly unconscious Palmer out of a casino elevator.

While Palmer is sprawled out on the ground, a man in a suit -- who appears to be talking into a security microphone -- approaches the situation and confronts Rice. It's unclear if the man is security, but it sure seems that way.

Moments later, as Palmer seems to regain consciousness, Rice walks away.

Both Rice and Palmer were later arrested and taken to a nearby police station. They've since been released.

Ray's attorney Michael Diamondstein tells us ... he has not seen the video but is adamant, "Neither Ray nor myself will try this case in the media."

He adds, "However, the video that's being posted by TMZ Sports is not the complete event, but is merely the end result of what transpired."

"We'll assure the public that when this matter is fully tried and completed, you'll have a better understanding of what happened and we ask the public to reserve making any judgment until all of the facts come out."

3 Doors Down Bassist Another DUI Mug Shot

Published | Updated

3 Doors Down bassist Todd Harrell has figured out a way to spruce up his DUI mug shot ... with a blue do-rag and a goofy grin.

Harrell was arrested last night in D'Iberville, Miss. ... police say they found him slumped over the steering wheel at an intersection.

According to cops ... the DUI involves some sort of drug ... not alcohol.

Harrell has a serious DUI history ... he was busted for killing someone last April and charged with
vehicular homicide. His car struck a pickup truck, killing the driver. Cops say he was under the influence of alcohol and Rx pills. The criminal case is pending.

His first brush with DUI was back in July 2012. So he's no stranger to driving under the influence. He was convicted but did no jail time ... he was required to take an alcohol ed course.

We're guessing he flunked.

Confessed Craigslist Killer ZERO Evidence She's A Serial Killer ... So Far

Published | Updated

Self-confessed killer Miranda Barbour SAYS she left a deadly trail of bodies -- between 22 and 100 -- during a serial murder spree ... but so far there's NO evidence she's telling the truth.

The District Attorney in Northumberland County PA tells TMZ ... "As of this date there has been no verification of any of the information that has been the subject of media coverage regarding prior acts of the defendant."

So short story ... Barbour's claim that she has murdered between 22 and 100 people so far is unsupported.

Nonetheless ... the D.A. says any info he gets will be forwarded on to the FBI and other law enforcement agencies.

But the D.A. clearly thinks Barbour has committed one murder -- the man who she says she met on Craigslist and stabbed 20 times. And the D.A. indicates he may well ask for the death penalty.

Barbour's lawyer has already asked a judge to block any bid for execution.

He was eventually released on $168 bond.

Published | Updated

The Satan-worshipping woman who just admitted to more than 22 murders actually suggested it could be several times more than that number ... confessing it's "less than 100" ... and her murderous alter ego was named "Super Miranda."

Miranda Barbour is in a Pennsylvania jail after allegedly murdering a man she located in a sex ad on Craigslist. She dropped a bombshell in an interview with Francis Scarcella of the The Daily Item ... something that was not in his article.

Scarcella tells TMZ, he pressed Barbour on the number of people she killed, after she said, "When I hit 22, I stopped counting." As Scarcella pushed her, she blurted out, "It's less than 100." She would not be more specific.

Scarcella says when Barbour was about to kill, she claimed she changed personas, becoming "Super Miranda."

Barbour told Scarcella the knife she used to brutally murder the Craigslist victim had murderous notches ... she said she had used the same knife before ... because it's one of her favorites.

And Barbour told Scarcella ... she only killed bad people -- people who abused children and people who owed money.

And Barbour says she felt satanism controlled what was inside of her.

Finally this ... Scarcella spoke with Barbour's roommate who told him Barbour once got 2 viles of semen from her husband -- before they were married -- and used them to masturbate. Apparently it's a devil-worshipping thing.
