Cage arrested for drunken behavior

Actor Nicolas Cage was arrested after he got drunk in New Orleans' French Quarter and argued in the street with his wife over whether a house they were in front of was theirs.

Police said in a press release on Saturday that Cage was arrested the previous evening. Police said the couple was in front of a home that Cage insisted they were renting. She said it wasn't theirs, and Cage then grabbed her arm.

The release said Cage started hitting vehicles and tried to get into a taxi. A police officer saw that Cage was drunk and told him to get out of the cab. Cage then started yelling at the officer.

Cage was booked on charges of domestic abuse battery, disturbing the peace and public drunkenness. He was released on US$11,000 bond on Saturday afternoon after being held at a prison.

Cage won an acting Academy Award for 1995's "Leaving Las Vegas."
