Officers had been called to reports of a disturbance involving a man urinating outside the Buffalo Wild Wings restaurant some 60 miles southeast of Los Angeles.

And after the alleged victim and witnesses identified Dick in a "curbside lineup" he was taken to the Southwest Detention Center in nearby French Valley.

"Dick walked up to the 17-year-old female victim, grabbed her tank top and bra and pulled them down and exposed her breasts," a police statement said.

"Marijuana and Xanax were found in Andy Dick's pants pockets."

He was booked at 04:30 local time (12:30 BST) on felony possession of narcotics, misdemeanour possession of marijuana and misdemeanour sexual battery.

He posted a $5,000 (£2,500) bail and is to appear in court on August 12th.
