Tony Nominee Alec Baldwin Arrested in New York City

USA Today reports that actor Alec Baldwin has been arrested in New York City this morning for riding the wrong way on Fifth Avenue on his bicycle. In Touch Weekly has shared a photo of the incident at left.

According to TMZ, part of the reason for the arrest was the fact that Baldwin did not have identification on him when he was riding. The 56-year-old '30 Rock' star was handcuffed and taken to the police station.

Baldwin is well known for his portrayal of 'Jack Donaghy' on NBC's 30 Rock. Baldwin's Blue Jasmine recently hit theaters, and the actor will next appear on the big screen in Caught Stealing, Torrente 5 and Still Alice.

The actor appeared on Broadway last summer in Orphans. His other stage credits include Twentieth Century, Short Talks on the Universe, A Streetcar Named Desire, Serious Money and Loot, as well as off-Broadway's Entertaining Mr. Sloane, South Pacific, Macbeth and Prelude to a Kiss.
