Alleged comedian Andy Dick was arrested in West Virginia on two felony counts of first-degree sexual abuse this morning. Talk about a _______ move!
Dick was released from jail in Barboursville, W.V., after posting $60,000 bail. The owner of the Funny Bone, where he performed last night, posted bail.
According to officials, Dick was talking to a guy when he “unexpectedly, and without invitation, grabbed the victim’s crotch, groping, then kissing him.”
Also, the security guard at the bar is claiming that Andy Dick “grabbed his crotch and began laughing” when the guard tried to give him an armband.
Dick was in town performing at the Funny Bone in Huntington, W.V. Manager Tom Schaefer says Dick will go on stage Saturday and Sunday as planned.
This old (but still funny!) Andy Dick mug shot is from ‘08.
One of his alleged victims last night? Phillip Daniels, a bouncer at Rum Runners, who says Dick tried walking past him when he entered, without taking a wristband.
Daniels says he stopped the comedian, put the band on his wrist … and Andy grabbed his crotch. When he pulled away, the guy says, Dick laughed and walked off.
“You could tell he was really out of it. He was on something,” he said. A male patron also says Dick also groped him at the same location. Police were soon called.
The bouncer says someone called the cops, who showed up 20 minutes later, inquiring about Andrew. A few minutes later they departed with the Dick in handcuffs.
You may recall that the man is currently on probation over an incident at a chicken joint, where he was busted for sexual assault and copped a plea to battery in 2008.
He faces 1-5 years in prison if convicted this time. Andy’s lawyer says Andy “is stunned by these allegations” and denies wrongdoing. If so, then what’s with this …
He may or may not be convicted of sexual abuse, but Andy Dick was definitely all over some fellas last night in W.V., according to this TMZ picture. [Photo: TMZ]
