Paparazzi Get Arrested Blocking Sidewalk Stalking Britney Spears

West Hollywood Arrests PaparazziYou can't block a sidewalk, it's a public right-of-way, and in West Hollywood doing so can get you arrested as TMZ reports:

By our count, six camerapeople were busted last night; two outside the salon where Brit was getting her hair done and four outside Villa nightclub where Lindsay was partying. Two TMZ photogs were among those busted.

[...]

One TMZ photog says he had just stepped off the sidewalk when he was cuffed and thrown into the back of a squad car for an hour. Another TMZ photog was hauled off to jail for 6 hours. [TMZ]

Ahhh, thank West Hollywood Los Angeles County Sheriffs! You made our morning.

Perhaps those photogs should consider a career covering a subject that actually matters. Slimeballs.
