LOCAL : Guns N’ Roses Singer Arrested
Guns N’ Roses lead singer Axl Rose was arrested today for investigation of assault with a deadly weapon after allegedly striking a West Hollywood neighbor on the head with a wine bottle, authorities said.
Rose, 28, apparently believed that the woman, Gabriella Kantor, 37, had called police after complaining of loud music in his home, police said. Rose was arrested at his 12th-floor condominium at 2:30 a.m. and booked for investigation of assault with a deadly weapon. His business manager, Doug Goldstein, posted $5,000 bail.
Rose and Kantor got into a heated argument in the hallway over loud music he was playing in his apartment, a sheriff’s spokesman said. Rose allegedly grabbed the woman’s keys and tossed them off a balcony. He then allegedly emptied a bottle of wine and swung it at her, the spokesman said.
