Patrick Wolf 'Arrested' For Spitting In Bouncer's Face

June 10, 2009
Patrick Wolf 'Arrested' For Spitting In Bouncer's FacePatrick Wolf was arrested in San Francisco on Monday night (June 8) after he got into an altercation with a club bouncer.

The 25-year-old singer performed a show at Slim's live music club when things seemingly turned ugly.

Writing on his Twitter page, Wolf said: “Was arrested by San Fran police for spitting in a bouncer's face in protection of myself. Was almost shot in the face by a policeman. WTF?

“Was told by the policeman 'take your shitty ass music out of this city and if you ever step off that tour bus you will be ***** ******** " '”

He continued: “Feeling very Thelma and Louise right now.. must sleep... not allowed off the bus or I will be shot by a policeman. this country is insane!!!”

Another Tweet said: “Btw. apparently my spit DEFINITELY contains "hiv, swine flu and hepatitis" that is why my spit is a deadly weapon according to police here!”
