A member of New Found Glory’s crew was arrested and charged with a misdemeanor last night in Indianapolis.
Looks like we need a lil refresher course here. When a police man or woman pulls your car over, be friendly, and if they ask to search your vehicle, tell them, in a friendly tone, “no.”
Unless they have probable cause (for instance, if you’re driving with an open container, if you’re black, or you wear a turban and a beard, or if you have long hair and tattoos), they can not legally search your car. If you have something illegal on you - then ESPECIALLY don’t let them search your car. Let your lawyers handle it.
According to a press release, New Found Glory were traveling in the Indianapolis area, and their tour bus was pulled over for driving with the high beams on. The police pulled them over and searched the vehicle, and a member of NFG’s crew was subsequently charged with a misdemeanor. We have not determined this for a fact, but most likely the cops found something like a dimebag of weed. No one in New Found Glory was arrested, and they will be playing their Warped Tour dates as scheduled.
(I bet you a dollar that one of their roadies is taking the fall for someone.)
You know what? Fuck it, that cop’s a toolshed. I bet you he high fived every meathead in his squad when he got back to the station. Don’t fuck with our rock stars, THEY’RE OUR ROYALTY. You wouldn’t pull over Princess Di, would you?
First Willie Nelson, now New Found Glory? What’s this world coming to?
Don’t let them search your car.
