A Manhattan Beach man apparently working as a roadie on Britney Spears' concert tour was arrested Wednesday in Pittsburgh after he hit a police officer.Rockey Dickey, the gentleman above on the left, was allegedly punching another man on East Carson Street, a hot Pittsburgh night spot, when a cop intervened. Then Dickey hit the officer, according to local news station WPXI.
When another officer came to help, Alex Montes, a Valencia resident shown above at right, jumped in and put the cop in a headlock.
Montes' mother told the news station that both men are working on Brit's tour crew, and she's set to perform Friday in Pittsburgh.
The news station also reported that officers stunned Dickey, 34, with a Taser gun because he was kicking his legs and flailing his arms as police tried to handcuff him.
His pal Montes, 23, fled, but was found soon after.
Both men are charged with criminal conspiracy, disorderly conduct and public drunkenness. Dickey was also charged with assault and resisting arrest.
