SEATTLE – Television actor Jason Wahler hurled racial and homophobic invectives at a police officer when he was arrested over the weekend after allegedly punching a hotel security guard and passing out drunk in a hallway, a Seattle Police Department report said.
Wahler, 20, a star of MTV’s “The Hills” and “Laguna Beach: The Real Orange County,” was arrested early Sunday for investigation of assault and criminal trespass. He posted bail and was released from the King County Jail nine hours later.
It was Wahler’s third arrest since September, when he punched a city worker and tow-truck driver in Los Angeles. Last month, the judge in that case sentenced him to 60 days in jail – a sentence he was scheduled to serve beginning in May – and ordered him to attend Alcoholics Anonymous meetings and a one-day program at the Museum of Tolerance for using racial slurs.
