Andy Dick Gets Arrested. Again.
Comedian Andy Dick has been arrested. Yet again. For touching someone. Yet again.
This time, the funny man has been put in the slammer on two counts of felony sexual abuse, while he was still on probation for a 2008 arrest for pulling down a teenage girl’s shirt.
His recent attack allegedly occurred early Saturday morning in West Virginia, after he appeared at the Funny Bone Comedy Club and Restaurant in Huntington.
Police have confirmed that Dick is currently in the Western Regional Jail.
"Based upon statements of two victims and independent witness accounts alleging that he had engaged in unwanted and uninvited groping of the two victims' genital areas, Andrew R. Dick (AKA Andy Dick) of South Pasadena, Calif., was arrested and charged with two counts of Sex Abuse in the First Degree," read a statement from the Huntington Police Department.
Reportedly, Dick’s arrest could have been arested on three counts of felony sexual abuse, after harassing a third person, but the man did not press charges. Allegedly, Dick attempted to kill the man, but he told the comedian, “I’m not down with that.”
As previously mentioned, this isn’t Dick’s first run-in with the law. In 2008 he pleaded guilty to misdemeanor battery and marijuana possession in California. A 17-year-old female said an "extremely intoxicated" Dick walked up to her, grabbed her tank top and bra and pulled them down, exposing her breasts, according to a police statement.
In Hollywood, he has a reputation for crude behavior. He has reportedly exposed himself to audiences at least twice. He was forced to leave the set of the show "Jimmy Kimmel Live" in 2007 after he repeatedly touched guest Ivanka Trump without her permission.
