According to a criminal complaint, Rockey Lee Dickey, 34, attempted to hit an officer who intervened during a drunken brawl with an unidentified man. Alex Montes, 23, allegedly stepped in and placed the officer in a headlock and was arrested shortly after fleeing the scene.

Police reportedly used a Taser gun to subdue Dickey, who has been charged with simple assault and resisting arrest.

Both men have been charged with disorderly conduct, criminal conspiracy and public drunkenness. They are free on $100,000 (£71,400) bail.

On her blog, Spears distanced herself from the men, stating they were "two employees of a company contracted to provide equipment for The Circus and were not employees of the singer. The Circus Starring Britney Spears tour does not support or tolerate this type of behavior."
