How do you know you have a substance abuse problem? When you make a fuss on an airplane about not getting a drink! Puddle of Mudd front man Wes Scantlin got nabbed by police for being drunk and making a fuss on an airplane. Reports indicate that the singer was arrested at an airport in Austin, Texas, after the plane he was on board was actually rerouted because of the ordeal. Apparently he got into a tussle with a flight attendant. What was the fight about? According to reports, it was about alcohol. Police arrested Scantlin for public intoxication and later charged him with interfering with a flight crew. He’s still behind bars in Texas. There is no statement from the band. A bench warrant was issued last month when Scantlin failed to show up to court for a controlled substance charge. He was supposed to show proof he had enrolled in a court ordered drug program.
