VERO BEACH, Fla. (AP) - September 11, 2008
The Vero Beach Police Department arrested the 51-year-old
comedian Wednesday on charges of possession of marijuana and drug
paraphernalia. White, whose comedy album is titled "You Can't Fix
Stupid," was booked at the Indian River County Jail shortly after
6 p.m. and released about two hours later on $1,000 bail.
His publicist, Kathe Nelson, says he went straight to the show
after being released from jail. The show was delayed about an hour.
One of White's most famous routines includes a joke about being
booked into a Texas jail under the alias "Tater Salad."
