Larry Craig Arrested

BY BW STAFF

.

We're only just getting this newsbreak now: U.S. Sen. Larry Craig was
arrested in June on lewd conduct charges in a Minneapolis airport.

Details as we get them. Roll Call has the report, but their Web site is
clogged to traffic, and no wonder.

We've got an excerpt of Roll Call's report:

Sen. Larry Craig (R-Idaho) was arrested in June at a Minnesota airport by a
plainclothes police officer investigating lewd conduct complaints in a men's
public restroom, according to an arrest report obtained by Roll Call Monday
afternoon.

Craig's arrest occurred just after noon on June 11 at Minneapolis-St. Paul
International Airport. On Aug. 8, he pleaded guilty to misdemeanor
disorderly conduct in the Hennepin County District Court. He paid more than
$500 in fines and fees, and a 10-day jail sentence was stayed. He also was
given one year of probation with the court that began on Aug. 8.

A spokesman for Craig described the incident as a "he said/he said
misunderstanding," and said the office would release a fuller statement
later Monday afternoon.

After he was arrested, Craig, who is married, was taken to the Airport
Police Operations Center to be interviewed about the lewd conduct incident,
according to the police report. At one point during the interview, Craig
handed the plainclothes sergeant who arrested him a business card that
identified him as a U.S. Senator and said, "What do you think about that?"
the report states.

Craig was detained for approximately 45 minutes, interviewed, photographed,
fingerprinted and released, and police prepared a formal complaint for
interference with privacy and disorderly conduct.
