Lead singer of Puddle of Mudd, Wes Scantlin, was involved in a stand-off with police in Burbank, Calif., after allegedly resisting arrest. The incident occurred when Scantlin was pulled over for a traffic violation in his Hummer H2, and police discovered an outstanding warrant related to allegations of possessing a weapon at an airport.
Upon being asked to exit his vehicle, Scantlin reportedly refused, leading to the involvement of a crisis negotiator. Despite continued resistance, officers resorted to pepper-spraying him. Eventually, SWAT members had to break the car window and use 'non-lethal' pepper balls to secure his surrender.
