‘Jackass’ Star Steve-O Arrested on Outstanding Warrant

An unresolved 2003 assault charge leads to detention by Canadian authorities

"Jackass" daredevil Steve-O might have broken into the mainstream with his stint on "Dancing With the Stars," but some episodes from his past are coming back to haunt him.

According to TMZ, Steve-O (real name: Stephen Glover) was arrested at Calgary International Airport after departing a plane on Sunday, due to an outstanding warrant for assault with weapon that was issued in 2003.

The warrant was issued after Glover allegedly attacked someone with an unknown object. It's unclear who the alleged victim was.

Glover was released on a bail of $10,000 Canadian, which he had to pay in cash. He's due back in court in May.

Steve-O has had several run-ins with the law over the years, pleading guilty to felony possession of cocaine in 2008 (which led to a stint in rehab) and being arrested on obscenity charges in 2002 for publicly performing a stunt called "The Butterfly," during which he allegedly exposed himself.
