    Actor Rip Torn headed for rehab after drunk bank arrest

    He was arrested on Friday night after he was found inside the Litchfield Bancorp bank with a loaded revolver.
    Torn was charged with burglary, criminal trespass and weapons offenses.
    He did not enter a plea and was released on $100,000 (£62,688) bail and will be required to undergo alcohol rehabilitation.

    The gravelly-voiced actor was born Elmore Rual Torn in 1931.
    A cousin of US actress Sissy Spacek, he was nominated for an Oscar in 1984 for his role in Cross Creek, a biopic of The Yearling author Marjorie Kinnan Rawlings.
    He also won an Emmy for The Larry Sanders Show in 1992, and most recently appeared in US sitcom 30 Rock as television boss Don Geiss.
    Last year, Torn was given probation in a drink-driving case in Connecticut and granted permission to enter an alcohol education programme.
    He also has two previous drink driving arrests in New York, one of which became notorious after a video emerged of the actor cursing at police officers and refusing to take a sobriety test.

    12:15 Check-in.

    Pretty much just made all the instrument technicians on here hate me forever by calling them "Unprofessional and not up to the job"

    The ****s had a report from me since September and had told me they'd lost the Accelerometers that needed fitted to some pumps. So I pulled a box out from under their desk and whipped the Accels out. ****ing fannies must think I'm clueless. The ISC Team leader went off his nut at them.

    Methinks I was getting called all the ****s under the sun when I left the office.
