In August 2009 in Georgia, four actors behind some of The Vampire Diaries’ most adored characters were arrested by the police.
Monroe County deputies had caught them dangling from a bridge, and numerous drivers called 911 to report the women were flashing their chests from an interstate overpass, ShowBiz CheatSheet reports.
They were booked on disorderly conduct and were released, according to the Atlanta Journal-Constitution. Officers checked Shields’ camera and finds images of the women hanging onto or straddling the bridge in Forsyth.
The arrest controversy for some of the fans was an introduction to the series as it dropped its first episode in September 2009. That month, Ewell in an interview with Entertainment Weekly explained that the incident wasn’t what it seemed.
She said that after they stopped for taking photos on the bridge, police approached and stated they received complaints that people were flashing. She also adds that they were given tickets for loitering.
