JEFFREY WRIGHT TASED DURING ARREST?: Authorities reviewing footage from patrol car cameras; TMZ says cell phone video shows cop brutality.(July 18, 2008)
*Jeffrey Wright and Josh Brolin, who were arrested this past weekend in Shreveport, La., were reportedly pepper sprayed and tasered by cops following their now infamous bar brawl. Local station KTBS is reporting that Wright was repeatedly pepper sprayed and hit with tasers as he lay face down on his stomach in the street. TMZ.com reports of witnesses hearing the officers directing extremely foul language at Wright, including the N-word. Cops said they have audio and video recordings of the arrest, but they're keeping quiet about what's on the tape. The bar fight took place during the wrap party for the film "W," the Oliver Stone-directed picture starring Brolin as President George W. Bush and Wright as retired Gen. Colin Powell. The two, arrested along with several crew members, are charged with interfering with police. Each posted a bond of $384, according to court records.
