Now don't get me wrong, Andy is out of line in his behavior, however I don't know why they were there. They should have been at home or anywhere but a bar at 1am on a Tuesday night. The only 17 and 19 year old girls I have ever seen at bars were lying about their age and getting in trouble. I guess trouble (Andy Dick) found them.

They would book him.

a reader wrote on Jul 16, 2008 11:19 AM:Buffalo Wild Wings is a restaurant, not a 'bar', if you visit the web site you'll see they have a kids menu. The article does not indicate the 17 yr old was there at 1:00 am but that the police pulled Dick over at 1:30am. The incident may well have taken place hours earlier and by the time the girl reported it and the police responded it was 1:30am.

Jeff wrote on Jul 16, 2008 11:43 AM:The article states that Andy Dick was arrested at 1:30 am, not that the crime occurred at that time. Once can assume that it took place at least a few hours before he was arrested. I still agree that a 17 year old girl has no business being at that establishment without a parent present.

Bad Habit wrote on Jul 16, 2008 2:00 PM:The AP is reporting the MPD were called at 1:13A due to a man urinating in the parking lot and causing a disturbance. When MPD arrived a 17 year old girl advised them that she was outside when Mr. Dick approached her and pulled down her top. He was then stopped at 1:30A so based on this time line the incident probably happened near 1:00A. Does Murrieta have a curfew law for minors? what is the cut-off age?

Youre missing the point wrote on Jul 16, 2008 2:17 PM:Looks like a lot of you are saying it's the girl's fault for being out late. This guy lives up to his name. No man has a right to pull down a girl's top, no matter what hour it is.

I spent 21 years in law enforcement and this certainly qualifies. He should be charged with indescent exposure, since urinating in public also qualifies. I hope Rod Pacheco's office will not show him any mercy and make him the 290 registrant he deserves to be.

Huh wrote on Jul 16, 2008 6:48 PM:Mike, you're lying. If you spent 21 years in law enforcement (assuming in California) you would know this was a misdemeanor. If he held her down, restrained her in some way, or inserted something somewhere then it's a felony. Are you seriously saying pulling someone's top down or "pantsing" someone should be a felony?

And whats up with getting on the girl's issues and MPD? Is MPD not suppossed to enforce the law if a girl is breaking curfew ($55.00 infraction)? Come on people.

I will say one thing about the incident; Andy's behavior might be written off as typical “Hollywood” behavior if he were still in his 20’s. He’s 42-years old! Isn’t it time to grow up?

Dad wrote on Jul 17, 2008 10:58 AM:Yes: He lives up to his last name. Period. Has before, and will again. That is the simple element. Dad want to know why the parents of said 17 year old was out in ... Bar and Grill at that hour. Seems it turns into a Bar later and that is not the place for a young girl in a "Tube Top..." Lets be honest for a moment. If your 'daughter' was out at 1 am or past, would you be a good parent by sending here there in a tube top. There is ONE purpose for that kind of attire; to show off something. Done. He will always be Dick. Parents take notice.

Crazy Skip wrote on Jul 17, 2008 11:04 AM:Skip you are a hypocrite.Someone always has to drag the undocumented immigrants into these stories. It's always the schizophrenics/xenophobes.

Easy wrote on Jul 17, 2008 11:07 AM:I stumbled onto these comments while reading the story online, and most really trouble me.

First off, Dick's drinking and using are his business...but not if it interferes with the rights of others. Battery, public intoxication and urinating in a public place are each crimes. Whether he has a problem with drugs and alcohol or not is really not up for discussion because the issue is responsibility or lack thereof. He lost control and should pay the price..it's as simple as that.

The conversations about why the girl was out so late are ridiculous and completely irrelevent. It has nothing to do with the fact that Dick was drunk or high, acted like a jackass and committed at least three crimes.

Let's leave the victim alone and not forgive or justify Dick's behavior because of his fame.

nick wrote on Jul 17, 2008 11:34 AM:What a "Dick" -grin-

ah ya wrote on Jul 17, 2008 11:36 AM:Also last year, Dick was cited in Columbus, Ohio, for urinating on the sidewalk. A comedy club owner in the city said the actor also made inappropriate comments while on stage, groped patrons, took women into the men's room and urinated on the floor and on at least one person.

At least one, there always at least one. hahahaha I love it!

ABC wrote on Jul 17, 2008 11:39 AM:Dicks a "D" but so are a fair percentage of individuals when alcohol is added to the mixture. Don't get me wrong...it was wrong.

But ok, so the "girls" (being that they were both minors) were in a resturant/bar at the time of the call around 1am...I don't like it.

However that's what communities get, when they will only allow alcohol establishments to open if they serve food. Murrieta only has one real bar, not allowing persons under 21, Joannies Cantina, which was there before Murrieta became a City.

Food service "bars"...open the doors for lecherous individuals to oggle permiscuous youth and co-mingle in an unheathy atmosphere. Nieve minor adults with uninhibited adults always spells trouble, thats why the rule is 21 and not 18, it gives them a couple years to grow up.

Communities should look a little harder at the resturants that allow alcohol menus to find the real reason for the establishment...I mean really...bufflo wings? Com'on, it's a bar! Minors need to be out by the time the street lights come on if not sooner.

career wrote on Jul 17, 2008 12:14 PM:Andy Dick's career was over 5 years ago. No one has bothered to tell him. I do feel bad for his friend's family. he came here for a funeral and made a complete mockery of their loss. Kinda pathetic.

to ABC wrote on Jul 17, 2008 12:24 PM:A little puritanical, aren't we?
I have been there. They serve food and yes, alcohol. Many businesses do. Responsible drinking is primarily the individual's duty but bartenders have a legal duty to not serve someone who is obviously intoxicated.
There is nothing wrong with folks of all ages visiting a legal business.
Personally, I don't like the place. The service was lousy, the floor was dirty and the food was just so-so. It is just another generic eatery in a strip mall.
They did not really do anything wrong but they should be a little embarrassed that their products & service are sub par.

Seriously wrote on Jul 17, 2008 1:42 PM:He is such a dweeb. But, I am more concerned as to why a 17 year old was in a bar at 1:00 am. This is a wakeup call for her parents.

Riverside County Sheriff deputies and Murrieta PD could target these chemically addicted Hollywood cretins the same way they did recently against the motorcycle gang ("Mongols") Many people move to Murrieta and Temecula to get away from the freaks and piggish behavior in Los Angeles, Hollywood and San Diego. Hopefully Andy Dick's arrest will send a message to all of the Paris Hiltons, Lindsay Lohans and other celebrity garbage out there to keep their tacky behavior and illicit activities out of our neighborhood.

I was a California Cop. I am curious if You can Read. The crime against the victim in this case meets the criteria for a felony. Andy Dick has a pattern of this type of behavior and he desrves to be a sex registrant for the rest of his life. I hope he does not get a slap on the wrist because of his celebrity status. He deserves to do his next interview from the county jail. This crime involved a minor, so I am curious that MPD did not do a bail enhancement. It could have been done and I would have done so for this offense.
