Roman Polanski arrested?

Weird. I sort of figured that case would end up being allowed to slide. And just a few days ago was the death of the MANSON follower who stabbed his wife SHARON TATE to death, so it felt like a time of pity for Polanski. But the Swiss just arrested him in the old American case involving a 13-year-old girl. Sounds seedy indeed.
