Wookiee sought in Marilyn sex incident
Police were searching Sunday for a Chewbacca impersonator who had reportedly sexually assaulted a Marilyn Monroe look-alike in front of the Kodak Theatre in Hollywood a month ago.
The Chewbacca impersonator was wanted on suspicion of grabbing the Monroe impersonator's hand and placing it on his groin about four weeks ago, said Sgt. David Torres, spokesman for the Los Angeles Police Department's Hollywood Division.
The Monroe look-alike called police on Sunday after complaining of a separate incident that day between the two impersonators, Torres said.
The brown, hairy Wookiee fled just as police arrived at about 12:30 p.m. on Hollywood and Highland boulevards.
"The area is very active with summer tourists, traffic, the premiere of Harry Potter and the impersonators," Torres said. "This is not a typical incident, but the impersonators do compete for tourists, and there have been other conflicts."
The investigation is ongoing.
The Chewbacca impersonator was arrested in February in front of Grauman's Chinese Theatre after allegedly head-butting a tour guide operator who said the outfitted Wookiee was upsetting tourists.
