Steven Gantt of the hit show “Gigolos” has been arrested in Las Vegas — what started as a simple speeding violation turned into a one-way ticket to prison because the actor has an outstanding arrest warrant.
According to law enforcement sources, Steven Gantt — who happens to be a real-life male escort on Showtime’s controversial TV show — was pulled over by the Las Vegas Metro Police around 1:40 AM Friday due to a speeding violation.
However, when the police officers ran a routine check on Steven Gantt, they found an active arrest warrant for Open and Gross Lewdness and immediately arrested him. Details about his previous infraction remains unclear.
Gantt was subsequently brought to the Clark County Detention Center for booking and released sometime later.
He was actually leaving the “Gigolos” premiere party held at Vince Neil’s strip club Girls, Girls, Girls when he got pulled over by the police. Gantt did end up getting out of the speeding ticket. So far, he has not said anything about the incident on his Twitter account.
