Celebrities in Peril - Rikki Rockett

Rikki Rockett, drummer for the rock band Poison, has been arrested for rape in Los Angeles.

Rockett - real name Richard Ream - was held after a woman filed a complaint claiming she had been raped at a casino in Neshoba, Mississippi.

A police spokesperson said prosecutors were deciding whether the star would be sent back to Mississippi. The 46-year-old musician, who was unavailable for comment, has been released from police custody.

The band, best known for releasing the song Talk Dirty to Me, was founded in the 1980s by Rockett and singer Bret Michaels.
