Brothers in tiger attack arrested again
(08-06) 08:56 PDT SAN MATEO -- The two San Jose brothers who survived a Christmas Day 2007 tiger attack at the San Francisco Zoo were arrested in San Mateo for misdemeanor violations after a traffic stop, the latest in a series of run-ins with the law, authorities said today

The brothers recently split what remained of a $900,000 settlement the zoo paid them in connection with the attack. Their arrests come two weeks after the older sibling, Kulbir Dhaliwal, 25, was booked on suspicion of felony cocaine possession after being stopped near San Jose State University.

The officer smelled the odor of marijuana in the car and saw an open bottle of Grey Goose vodka inside, Wagstaffe said.

Kulbir Dhaliwal failed a series of field-sobriety tests and had a blood-alcohol level of .10 percent, authorities said. The level that constitutes drunken driving is 0.08 percent. When the officer asked Amritpal Dhaliwal for his identification, he lied and said he was Tarlok Dhaliwal, his 26-year-old brother who had also been arrested in the incident near San Jose State, authorities said.

8. Well, think of it this way...
If all of these charges stand, they'll be someone else's neighbor for 2-3 years. :hide:

Congrats on the new job! :hi:
Might be moving to the east bay myself very soon.

9. Some people are exceedingly slow learners.
Remember when Bobbitt was arrested for beating up on his new girlfriend. You'd think after getting his wiener cut off he'd think twice before doing what got it sliced again.

With these guys, apparently it should be survival of the drunkest and stupidest.
