It's getting so hard to find good help these days! X17's India correspondent reported that three of Angelina's bodyguards (British nationals Thomas Mcadam, Robert Patrick, and Michael John Brett) were arrested in Pune yesterday - the trio were released late in the evening, but our man on the street reports that they're under strict orders to present themselves to the police every night for the next seven days!
According to The Guardian, the three men were picked up in connection with yesterday's incident at the Mumbai school where Jolie's bodyguards reportedly pushed and shoved a crowd of concerned parents and media personnel. The Guardian article also claims that the bodyguards made use of a number of racial insults, quoting a source who claims the bodyguards said "You bloody Indian" (remember - "bloody" is considered a mild epithet abroad).
It's also worth pointing out that this is hardly these bodyguards' first time in the spotlight following some wildly inappropriate behavior - those of you with long memories probably remember one of Brad's bodyguards choking a paparazzi a few weeks ago!
We'll have more news as our Indian correspondant reports back, so stay tuned to X17!

they are starting to look trashier and trashier by the day. Who do they think they are to push people around like that?

LMAO. ALL OF THIS HAPPENED BECAUSE OF THE PHOTOGS.
BODYGUARDS GET PUSHY WHEN PHOTOGS START RIOTS, LIKE THEY DO EVERY SINGLE DAY BRAD OR ANGELINA GO OUTSIDE.
BRAD & ANGE = JUST LIVING THEIR LIVES
PHOTOGS = STALKING, STARTING RIOTS

Brad has given an interview for an Indian TV that it was a horrible misunderstanding. In fact all the video evidence did not actually show them shoving the students and no racial slur were made. I think as usual things have been blown out of proportion and the local is media is partly to blame.
Btw, Brad looks so hot despite everything!!!

I have read on other sites that this type of stuff happens to lots of Bollywood stars too. The media causes too much trouble.

It´s sad things have come to this way. They should have been having a nice and calm time there doing their job, shooting the movie and enjoying time with their kids, yet they are daily in the news.

Some of you readers are simply googley-eyed star-worshipers. SOMEbody filed a complaint against those goons. It wasn't a figment of those citizens' collective imaginations. Cops don't arrest people without good reason. Get a grip, drool-cups.
