Fred Willard
Arrested
for Lewd Conduct
Fred Willard was arrested for lewd conduct last night in Hollywood when police allegedly caught him with his pants down in an adult movie theater ... TMZ has learned.
According to law enforcement sources, LAPD undercover vice officers went into the Tiki Theater in Hollywood and found the 78-year-old "Anchorman" star watching last night's feature ... with his penis exposed and in his hand.
We're told Willard was arrested around 8:45PM and booked for lewd conduct.
It was a quick release -- we're told he was out of police custody a short while later.
As for which movie Fred was watching -- there are 3 flicks in rotation at the theater ... "Follow Me 2," a XXX parody of "The Client List," and "Step Dad No. 2."
Willard is best known for his memorable roles in "Best in Show", "For Your Consideration", "American Wedding" and "Everybody Loves Raymond."
According to IMDB, Fred is "rumored" to be in pre-production for a movie entitled ... "The Yank."
I just hope if I reach 78 I can still take it out for a ride.
UPDATE:
Fred Willard's alleged lewd conduct at Hollywood's X-rated Tiki Theatre Wednesday night was controversial for sure, but was it a fireable offense?
PBS seemed to thinks so. The network announced Thursday that "given the unfortunate news reported today," Willard had lost his job as the narrator of the new Market Warriors series effective immediately.
