Guns N' Roses W. Axl Rose was released this evening
after having been arrested at 8 a.m. this morning in the lobby of his
hotel in Stockholm. The arrest followed an altercation with a hotel
security guard. Guns N' Roses had just played a triumphant show to a
sellout audience of 15,000 at the Globen Arena and had enjoyed the
city's hospitality until the morning hours when the incident occurred.
Axl Rose commented, "We had a great gig in Stockholm and I am not going to let this incident spoil that. My assistant Beta and I were talking in the lobby of the hotel when security started to give us a hard time. My only concern was to make sure she was ok."
Axl Rose is now in Oslo, Norway and the Swedish authorities are no longer pursuing this matter.
