Howlett arrested

[BT]Monza · 10th October 2007, 15:58

Rumor going around the office is that there was a brawl outside a hotel last night and Dougie was arrested. I'm taking it with a big grain of salt... but curious if true how that would effect his plans to move to Ireland. I know most of the ABs arrived at Auck this afternoon, so story looking less likely by the second...

Confirmed just now. Damage to cars apparently.

one of the guys at work was staying in the same hotel as the ABs after the France thing, and he reckons it wasnt just Howlett doing this sort of thing. Several of them were apparently up to no good that night hehe

All Black Doug Howlett has reportedly been arrested in London on suspicion of causing damage to two cars.

Reports suggest the winger was jumping on the cars, and a hotel room was also trashed.

A Scotland Yard spokesman said Howlett was arrested on suspicion of causing criminal damage to two vehicles, Newstalk ZB reports.

He was arrested yesterday after police were called to a disturbance outside the Hilton Hotel at Heathrow Airport.

Howlett has been released on bail and is expected to report back to Heathrow police at the end of October.

Howlett is about to take up a playing contract in Europe.

Genious.

Happens to the best of us.

No... it doesn't.

Gentl e · 10th October 2007, 17:23

What a KNOB, he's 29 and acting like one of those kids off police 10-7.

Sp0nge · 10th October 2007, 17:31

are you sure he was jumping on the cars?
...maybe he was trying to put back the choke

fucking

lol

Russian · 10th October 2007, 18:14

Wow, Douggie cracks in a big way... feel kinda sorry for the guy :/

xor · 10th October 2007, 19:59

fucking awesome

Hory · 10th October 2007, 21:39

All that pent-up rage since he didn't get a chance to choke it like the rest of them.

Makes me think maybe something happened before the quarter final for him to get left out in the first place, since it was a pretty weird decision.

xor · 11th October 2007, 07:41

again, fucking awesome.

blynk · 11th October 2007, 08:09

I bet he felt like shit when he found out afterwards the support the rest of the team got when they got home, and he had acted like a dick.

30k at the bar on cristal, i'd hardly be worried about what some ppl think back home, more regreting picking up the tab.

Jin · 11th October 2007, 11:07

:/ poor Doug

His head must be a mess

Ab · 11th October 2007, 11:16

Would a UK criminal conviction affect his ability to travel internationally?

Well, he'd probably get into Aussie Ok...

Which would make a northern-hemisphere-based rugby contract hard to fulfil...
