Kid Rock Arrested At Waffle House
Over the weekend, Kid Rock took some time out after a performance in Atlanta to do some fine dining. The Kid, also known as Robert Ritchie, was reportedly at a Waffle House restaurant in DeKalb County, Georgia in the early morning hours on Sunday when he got into some kind of brawl and was later arrested.
Apparently a customer at the Waffle House recognized a woman in Kid Rock’s entourage, and there was reportedly some exchange between the woman and the man who recognized her. Tempers flared and the exchange became an argument and the argument then became a brawl in the parking lot of the restaurant. Someone called the police, of course, and Kid Rock’s tour bus was pulled over a little while later.
Robert Ritchie and five other people were reportedly taken into custody and charged with misdemeanor simple battery. The Waffle House customer at the center of the scuffle, Harlen Akins, was also arrested and charged with one felony count of second degree criminal damage to property because he allegedly smashed a window at the Waffle House restaurant.
Kid Rock posted bond and left the DeKalb County jail at around 5 pm on Sunday and signed autographs for fans on the way out to his tour bus.
