What a world when even Bob Dylan is getting hassled by the Man just for going for a walk in the rain:
According to Long Branch Police Department Sgt. Michael Ahart, Dylan had been peering into a window of a house that was for sale, which prompted a neighbor to call the police on July 23.
One of two responding officers, Officer Kristie Buble, 24, approached Dylan and asked him for his name.
“She recognized the name, she just really didn’t believe it was Bob Dylan,” Ahart told CNN. “He was soaking wet because it was raining and he was wearing a hood.”
Shady Character.
So Buble asked the musician for identification, but he had none.
Buble and her partner, Officer Derrick Meyers, 24, then asked Dylan, 68, to accompany them to where his tour buses were parked. Once they arrived, Dylan showed them identification.
“Dylan was really cool about the whole incident,” Ahart said. He said he asked the singer why he had been walking in the rain and was told, “I just felt like going for a walk.”
Of course, the pencil-thin mustache does make him look like a shady character. I hope he talks about this on his next show. (Though I am sure I won’t be able to understand a word.)
