Drunk Newlyweds Tasered and Jailed

Ah, wedding night. A magical evening filled with frivolity and passion, and, evidently, non-lethal electrocution via taser.

Sigh.

A Vallejo, California couple was thrown in jail on their wedding night after a house party was repeatedly broken up by police. Neighbors reported hearing loud music late into the night and the party eventually headed outside.The groom, evidently overjoyed by the prospect of everlasting marital bliss, became a bit too animated for police. He was treated to a healthy dose of electrical current after he stripped off his shirt and advanced toward officers with balled up fists. He got tasered. On his wedding night. Well played, sir.

Not to be outdone, the bride was also arrested for public intoxication. Both of them spent the evening in Solano County Jail. We are aware that the economy is not at its strongest right now, but seriously, wasn't there an easier way to score a cheap room for the night? Here's hoping the rest of their lives go more smoothly than the first 24 hours of their marriage.
