Scout Willis Arrested in New York City


Scout Willis, the 20-year-old daughter of Demi Moore and Bruce Willis, was busted for allegedly drinking a beer in the Union Square subway station and giving cops a fake ID.

The Brown University student was released without bail Tuesday and ordered to return to Manhattan Criminal Court on July 31.

The celebrity spawn was nabbed just before 7 p.m. Monday by a transit cop who spotted her with an 8-ounce “Pakistani beer,” according to court papers.

She gave the officer a New York ID card with the name Katherine Kelly, but the cop didn’t fall for it, the complaint said.

After she was questioned further, Willis brought out her real California ID.

“My name is Scout Willis,” she told the officer, according to the criminal complaint. “The first ID isn’t mine. My friend gave it to me. I don’t know Katherine Kelly.”

The aspiring singer was charged with criminal impersonation and breaking the open container law, both misdemeanors.

Scout Willis’ lawyer, Stacey Richman, said she didn’t have any details about what her client was drinking, but denied the police were misled.

"She was honest about who she was. She is a very proper, very impressive, smart young woman,” Richman said. “She presented her own ID ... She did not know who the other person on the other ID is.”

The arrest comes a few months after Willis raised eyebrows with a Twitter feed that declared she hated her parents, had tried the designer drug MDMA and was hit on by photographer Terry Richardson.

She later said the tweets were a “hoax” she created for a class at Brown, intended to show that the more outrageous your posts, the more followers you get.
