Walt Disney’s Grandson Patrick Disney Miller Arrested In Woodland Hills

Last night my Blackberry was blowing up with Yahoo! News alerts about Walt Disney’s Grandson Patrick Disney Miller getting arrested at his home in Woodland Hills.

The Daily News writes:

Patrick Disney Miller, grandson of the late Walt Disney, has been arrested on suspicion of illegal gun possession, authorities said Thursday.

Miller, 42, was taken into custody about 5:30 a.m. Wednesday at his home in Woodland Hills, said Officer Rosario Herrera of the Los Angeles Police Department’s Media Relations unit.

Miller was booked for “possession of a firearm by a felon” and selling ammunition, Herrera said. Information on Miller’s felony background was not immediately known.

The District Attorney’s office filed a felony warrant against Miller on Monday alleging possession of ammunition, said Jane Robison of the DA’s office. Investigators served the warrant and arrested Miller.

According to the sheriff’s department, Miller was released late Wednesday night, and his next court appearance was scheduled for Dec. 31 in Van Nuys Superior Court, Div. 100.

The LA Times blogs:

Patrick Disney Miller, grandson of the late Walt Disney, was arrested early today on suspicion of illegal gun possession, police said.

Miller, 42, was taken into custody about 5:30 a.m. at his home in Woodland Hills, said Officer Karen Rayner of the Los Angeles Police Department.

“An LAPD gun unit was there to serve a search-and-arrest warrant,” Rayner said.

Miller was booked at the LAPD’s Valley jail in Van Nuys for investigation of possession of a firearm by a felon and selling ammunition or reloaded ammunition for a handgun. Miller is being held in lieu of $70,000 bail, Rayner said.

Miller is the youngest (and probably most screwed up) son of Walt Disney’s eldest daughter, Diane Marie Disney.

TMZ has this update:

UPDATE: Patrick was finally released at 9:44 PM PST last night.

Honestly, this guy is a nobody.  I’m sure Diane probably regrets giving all of her kids the middle name Disney, so now their degenerative, delinquent trust fund baby deeds can follow her around and soil the family’s name.

Spaghetti and Meat Balls at Pomodoro In Woodland Hills

For some reason people look at you funny when you are crying while eating Spaghetti and Meat Balls.  Actually, I had this delicious meal (Spaghetti Polpette, as their menu calls it)  at Pomodoro in Warner Center back on November 23rd, before I learned of their imminent doom.

Spaghetti and meat balls are an absolute Italian classic.  When I was growing up we had them for dinner every Wednesday night.  Ah, the memories.  I recently decided that I’d check out the local offerings of this classic dish, and Pomodoro was my first stop.

I found the dish to be flavorful and authentic, for under $10.  Their meat balls are made from beef and pork, with just the right amount of seasoning, which mixes nicely with the slightly spicy sauce.  Kick it up with some crushed red pepper, and you’re in Heaven!  Sadly, since the Woodland Hills Pomodoro is closing this Sunday (December 13th) there are only 4 more days left to enjoy it.

Watch for more spaghetti and meat balls reviews coming up soon!
