On August 21, 1989, WWF star André Roussimoff, who’s better known as André the Giant, was arrested and charged with assault and criminal mischief.
Roussimoff got into an altercation with a cameraman at a WWF event, which led to Roussimoff putting the cameraman into a headlock, and he damaged the camera.
Roussimoff was acquitted of the assault charge, but he was found guilty of the criminal mischief charge. He was fined $100 and ordered to pay $233 for the damaged camera.
