Poison's Rikki Rocket arrested on rape warrant

Tbdrikkirocket033108 Not that we've been wondering what happened to the members of Poison, but we know drummer Rikki Rocket was arrested on at LAX on a Mississippi rape warrant.

The L.A. Daily News says the 46-year-old was booked into county on a strong-arm rape warrant from Neshoba County, Miss., after getting off a flight from New Zealand. The L.A. County Sheriff Department's Web site said he had been arrested last Monday and then released, although his current status isn't known.

We're assuming he tried to call high-school buddy Bret Michaels for help, but Bret was too busy being the nice guy on Rock of Love, cleaning up vomit and tucking drunk girls into bed.
