We all need to drop Columbus Short name in the prayer box at church tomorrow. He was arrested for being drunk in public but wait until you hear the details surrounding his arrest. More inside….
Columbus Short can probably label 2014 as one of the worst years of his life. The former “Scandal” star spent his 4th of July behind bars after he was arrested for public intoxication. But he could have landed in jail for a lot more.
After hanging out at Katy Trail Ice House in Dallas for about four hours, the "Gave Ya" singer felt he had enough to drink and decided to leave. But…he allegedly didn’t pay his tab, so the bouncer at the door talked to him about it.
Apparently, Columbus was pissed the bouncer asked him about his unpaid tab and began screaming. An eyewitness tells TMZ the shamed actor accused the security guard of being a racist…which we’re not sure why being that the guard was also black. Then their screaming match turned into an all out scuffle.
Lucikly, two off-duty cops were there and broke it up before things got completely out of hand. Columbus could have possibly walked away a free man, but once he saw the cops were called, he started screaming at them too! It was reported he tried to attack the authorities as well. Sighs...
So…they locked him up and sent him to jail but he was only charged him for public intoxication.
You'll recall he skipped out on family court last week costing him to cough up over $46K in sposual support, child support and his estranged wife's legal fees.
This guy really needs in intervention…
