Two roadies for Britney Spears’ current tour were arrested Thursday night in Pittsburgh for assaulting officers who were trying to break up a fight, according to an Associated Press report.

According to the AP, Rockey Lee Dickey Jr., 34, of Manhattan Beach, California, was hitting another man on a city sidewalk when a patrol car drove by at around 1 a.m. Dickey swung at one of the officers who intervened, knocking off his hat, and had to be subdued with a Taser. The other roadie, Alex Montes, 23, of Valencia, California, put one of the officers in a headlock.

Both men were being held in jail on assault and public drunkenness charges, while the alleged victim, a 30 year-old Pittsburg man, was treated for facial injuries at a local hospital.

Britney Spears released the following statement on her Web site: “The two individuals have since been dismissed by their employer. The … tour does not support or tolerate this type of behavior”
