Marion Barry arrested

WASHINGTON (CNN) - Former Washington mayor, now Washington councilman, Marion Barry has had another run-in with the law.

The U.S. Park Police arrested Barry on Saturday, on an accusation of stalking.

A Washington resident flagged down a Park Police officer on patrol near Anacostia Park and pointed to someone in another car, saying he was stalking her, according to a police news release. Barry was arrested as a result.

He was cited and later released, with a mandatory court appearance for the stalking allegation. No court date was immediately released.

Barry's other run-ins with the law have included a federal sting operation in 1990, when then-Mayor Barry was videotaped smoking crack cocaine in a hotel room.

Despite his fall from grace, he was re-elected in 1994 to a four-year term as mayor. In his latest political comeback, Barry in 2004 won a seat on the D.C. Council, on which he continues to serve.
