This weekend was filled with quite some fun if you happened to be in New Orleans and your name is Nic Cage. The famed actor was arrested by NO Police for domestic abuse that stemmed from an argument with his wife.
via TMZ,
As TMZ first reported, Cage went to the tattoo shop on the night he was arrested ... and, according to witnesses, told shop employees he didn't know where he lived. According to police, that was the topic he and his wife were arguing over when he allegedly grabbed her.
In the surveillance video, Cage can be seen with arms around two friends -- and holding a clear plastic cup -- as he enters the shop. Cage would walk out and back in and again ... and that's when he can be seen arguing with his wife and friends. His wife can be seen motioning to herself throughout the video -- as if to say, "Listen to me" or "Come with me."
This reminds us of that scene in Leaving Las Vegas where Ben (Nic Cage) is drunk and argues with Sera (Elisabeth Shue), goes crazy and flips the black jack table over before being kicked out. Yes, life imitating art..
Cage has been in New Orleans filming Medallion.
