Isaiah Rider may not be much of a “celebrity” anymore, for his NBA career (which included stand-out time with the Minnesota Timberwolves) has ended.

But he’s still giving people something to talk about, as proven yesterday, when


Berkeley police officers responded to a report at 9 a.m. of a disturbance between a taxi cab driver and [Rider].

Rider, 36, was taken into custody on a bench warrant issued by Alameda County for unlawful possession of a firearm as well a $5,000 warrant for grand theft issued by the Oakland Police Department.

Sadly, Rider could probably afford whatever he was originally arrested for stealing.

Ah, celebrities. Why do they insist on doing what they shouldn’t be doing in Berkeley?
