Andy Dick Arrested for Being a Handy Andy
(HMG) – Anyone surprised to read Andy Dick is in trouble again? I think he is a unique comedic character actor but the guy seems to be a mess in real life and sadly he may now spend some years in jail. While Mr. Dick (well that’s his name) has been charged with two felony counts of sexual abuse in West Virginia, there is potentially a substance abuse aspect in this incident, which has been a problem in the past. In October of 2008, Dick plead guilty to misdemeanor marijuana possession and battery counts stemming from an incident in in which he pulled a teenage girl’s top down after exiting a sports bar. This incident has similar tones but Andy allegedly accosted some dudes this time.
Handy Andy was arraigned Saturday afternoon in Cabell County Magistrate Court, accused of grabbing a bouncer’s crotch and groping and kissing a male patron earlier in the morning at a bar in Huntington.A hearing is scheduled on Feb. 2, for the 44-year-old Dick, who was in Huntington to perform at the Funny Bone Comedy Club. TMZ has details of one of the two alleged felonies and my mention of a potential substance abuse aspect to the incident. Phillip Daniels, a bouncer at Rum Runners in West Virginia, tells TMZ that “You could tell he was really out of it. He was on something.” He recounts that Dick tried walking past him when he entered the bar, without taking a wristband. Daniels says he stopped the comedian, put the band on his wrist … that’s when Andy grabbed his crotch. Daniels tells us …when he pulled away, Dick laughed and walked off.
