Gregg Jarrett spent some time behind bars.
The Fox News anchor was jailed for a dozen hours after having a run-in with a police officer at the Minneapolis-St. Paul International Airport on Wednesday.
The 59-year-old was arrested after reportedly being "belligerent and uncooperative" with police officers who responded to a call yesterday that Jarrett was under the influence at an airport bar, according to airport spokesman Patrick Hogan. Local reports state that a bar employee called police to say Jarrett "appeared to be acting very intoxicated," possibly from mixing alcohol with a narcotic. Responding officers found Jarrett to be "uncooperative, resistant and combative" during his arrest.
