Wookie head-butts tour guide

A CHEWBACCA impersonator was arrested after being accused of head-butting a
Hollywood tour guide who warned the furry brown Wookiee about harassing two
Japanese tourists.

"Nobody tells this Wookiee what to do," "Chewie" from the Star Wars movies
said before slamming his head into the guide's forehead, the Los Angeles
Times newspaper reported today.

The two metre tall 44-year-old man was charged yesterday with misdemeanour
battery and later released on $25,880 bail, the Los Angeles Police
Department said.

Superman and other movie and cartoon impersonators were reported to be
witnesses to the aggression in front of Grauman's Chinese Theatre amid
concern that such behaviour could endanger their livelihoods.

Street performers at the world-famous cinema collect tips from tourists by
posing for photos, but some are known to turn hostile if they don't get
money.

Two years ago, Mr Incredible, Elmo the Muppet and the dark-hooded character
from the movie Scream were arrested for "aggressive begging", the LA
Timesreported.
