Columbus Short Arrested in Dallas for Public Intoxication



Columbus Short found himself in police custody over the holiday weekend after a scuffle in a Dallas bar.


According to TMZ, the actor spent Independence Day at Katy Trail Ice House. Short reportedly had several drinks and tried to leave the bar without paying his tab.


As a security guard tried to stop him from leaving, Short accused him of being racist. The guard, who was black got into a brawl with the actor. Several off-duty police officers broke up the fight and arrested short for public intoxication.


The arrest occurred around 2 a.m. It is unknown if the former "Scandal" actor is still in police custody.
