This story made me realize I haven’t been using the “celebrity idiots” tag nearly enough.
I didn’t even realize “biking while a douchebag” was an available charge, but I guess it is in NYC:

The scene of the arrest must have been fun. “I’ll have your badges! All of you! I’LL HAVE YOUR BADGES!”
Officer Moreno, badge number 23388, arrested me and handcuffed me for going the wrong way on Fifth Ave

Question: If Alec Baldwin ever has to call NYPD for help in an emergency, how intentionally slow will the response be?
Baldwin might find that he’d have less trouble with the NYC cops if he’d stop making it so damn much fun for them.
Meanwhile, back at NYPD headquarters, the questioning of Baldwin is going as expected:
Update:
Baldwin seems to be one of those guys who never notices that the common denominator in all of his troubles is himself. For example, I don’t know at all what happened, but in general, how big of a jackass do you have to be to get yourself put in handcuffs for riding a bike the wrong way down the street?
