Whatchu Talkin' Bout, Woman? Coleman Cited in Utah

Posted Aug 1st 2007 8:38AM by TMZ Staff

Ex-child star Gary Coleman had a little tiff with a woman in a Utah parking lot -- and was cited by cops for disorderly conduct after a couple of witnesses actually saw him smacking his steering wheel. Diff'rent strokes, indeed.

Coleman -- now 39 -- and an unidentified woman were in his car in a Provo parking lot when the erstwhile Arnold got "very excited and loud," Capt. Cliff Argyle tells the AP. "At one point he exited his vehicle, waving his arms, yelling and screaming." Coleman's car was blocking other cars trying to exit the lot.

Gary/Arnold was reportedly "cooperative" with cops. The disorderly conduct citation is a misdemeanor punishable by up to three months in the slammer and a $750 fine.

3. OH PUHLEAZE!!!! If this had been anybody else who wasn't "famous", the police wouldn't have been called & a charge wouldn't have been filed. Has no one else ever pounded a steering wheel in frustration or yelled at someone while out in public???

6. The hooker, ermm acquaintance, should have just put him in a shoe box like those little asian girls in that old godzilla flick, then went down the highway and just disposed of him.

7. I agree with #3 papa bear. just can't stop laughing!!!! The picture is too great.

I think 'arnold' should call Matt Rolloff and go cruis'in together. They can take turns doing shots and riding shot-gun.

Yipppeee kayaaaaa!

8. Maybe we can fix "Tex" Coleman up with the Playboy Playmate of the Month from 1989. Both has beens, both do nothings, both not even warranting a blip on the radar screen.

No one cares, TMZ. Try to stay current, would ya?

10. Please leave Gary alone. He is not at all what he is potrayed as. He is a caring person and just wants to be a person who was a "child actor", not a" child actor" who wants his persona exploited.

11. ALL OF YOU PEOPLE THAT SAY FIRST WHEN YOU MAKE THE FIRST COMMENT (AND SOMETIMES IT IS NOT EVEN THE FIRST COMMENT) ARE LOSERS. I'M SO SICK OF READIND THEESE THINGS AND SEEING THAT. WHY ARE YOU EXCITED TO BE THE FIRST COMMENT ON TMZ? YOU ARE ALL LOSERS AND SHOULD KILL YOURSELFS.

12. How did they know it was him smackin' the steering wheel, his head doesn't go above the door? And to think he turned out to be one of the more "normal" child actors of his day!!!!!
If I got arrested everytime I smacked my steering wheel, I'd be on death row! Who ever thought that was a crime?

13. I'm a bit surprised that he got arrested for hitting his steering wheel and yelling. There must be more to this because that just doesn't make sense. If he hit the woman - yes, makes sense, but his steering wheel????

14. I have to say, I've seen some deragatory and immature comments on this site, but come on Sebastian. Was that necessary? Please rethink what you post before putting it out there.
