This past Friday, Rip Torn, was arrested in Connecticut with attempted bank robbery. Torn was charged with carrying a gun without a permit, carrying a gun while intoxicated, first-degree burglary,first-degree trespassing, and third-degree criminal mischief. The bank he tried to rob was Lancorp Bank in Salisbury, Conn.
Torn was on a $100,000 bail. He is most known for his role as Artie on the “The Larry Sanders Show”. He has recently appeared in 30 Rock, and the film August. Torn has had a troubled past with alcohol, with several DUI’s.
Luckily, the bank was closed when Torn tried to rob it. I know I would be scared if Rip Torn came in with a loaded revolver all drunk. I mean look at the man, looks like he could be the perfect drunk homeless person desperate for anything. He has had money, so I think he was just drunk out of his mind and had no clue what he was doing. How is the star going to get out of this one? Will he be seeing jail time? Possibly could plead insanity, or say that he thought he was in a movie..lol.
