Breaking news from the Toronto Star:

Toronto City Councillor Rob Ford was arrested this morning on charges of assault and threatening death.

Officers from 22 Division arrested the councillor at 9:30 a.m.

"He was taken to 22 Division, processed and released" this morning, said Const. Wendy Drummond.

Police would not disclose any further information, saying they had to be careful not to reveal the identity of the complainant.

Innocent until proven guilty, as they say. But as far as Ford’s long list of controversial gaffes go, this one might just take the cake.
