NEW YORK (Dec. 16) - Philadelphia TV news anchor Alycia Lane was arrested in New York early Sunday on a charge of punching a police officer in the face, authorities said.

Lane, 35, hit a female officer in the face in Manhattan at about 2 a.m. Sunday, said police, who provided no information about what led up to the incident. The officer was treated at a hospital for a cut and was released.

The Emmy Award-winning anchor was arraigned on a felony charge of assaulting a police officer and pleaded not guilty, said her lawyer, David Smith.

Lane, a Long Island native, co-anchors evening newscasts at KYW-TV, a CBS affiliate in Philadelphia. Station spokeswoman Joanne Calabria said management was "very concerned for Alycia."

"We are still trying to sort out exactly what happened," Calabria said in a statement.

Lane, who lives in Philadelphia, was released from police custody on Sunday and was scheduled to appear in Manhattan Criminal Court on April 3, Smith said, adding that his client "denies striking anyone."

"We're confident that after a full investigation of the facts she'll be cleared of these charges," Smith said.

According to the article, "Lane made national headlines in May after she e-mailed vacation pictures of herself and friends wearing bikinis to NFL Network anchor Rich Eisen. The shots were intercepted by Eisen's wife, who responded with a snarky message to Lane.

Lane said the pictures were meant to be good fun between old friends, not an attempt to break up Eisen's marriage."

Sure thing, Alycia... believe that --> > eyeroll <

Flattering shot, but the woman’s close to anorexic.

She’s been wrapped a little tight for at least six months. From Wikipedia:

In May 2007 Lane became the center of a national media story, when reports surfaced that Lane emailed pictures of herself and friends in a bikini to the NFL Network’s Rich Eisen to an account that he shared with his wife, Suzy Shuster.[1] Shuster’s email response became public, [2] [3] but Lane insisted that the pictures were harmless[4] and that she and Eisen have been “purely platonic” friends “for almost 10 years”, and that they “regularly exchange e-mail and photos.”[5]

Sounds impressive, until you realize she didn't drive across half the continent on stimulants and wearing adult diapers.
