Ozzy Fans Caught in Sting


Thirty-six Ozzy Osbourne fans who thought they had won VIP tickets to the singer's show in Fargo, North Dakota, got an even bigger surprise when they showed up at the venue on October 29th: They were busted in a sting operation for infractions including neglecting to pay child support and failure to appear in court. "Most of them were completely stunned as they walked around the corner and realized the people wearing PDL Productions T-shirts were sheriff's deputies, " says Cass County Sheriff Paul D. When Osbourne learned about the incident without his consent, he issued an angry statement:"Sheriff Laney should be apologizing to me for using my name in connection with these arrests. it's insulting to me and to my audience, and it shows how lazy this particular sheriff is when it comes to doing his job." Laney says he has no plans to apologize. " We are charged with serving warrants,"he says,"and we just found a creative way to do it."
