Bill Murray says he was just dropping people after a party when he was stopped in downtown Stockholm driving a golf cart.

The police "asked me to come over and they assumed that I was drunk and I explained to them that I was a golfer," Murray told reporters Monday at the Venice Film Festival, where he appeared before the premiere of his new film "The Darjeeling Limited," which also stars Adrien Brody, Jason Schwartzman and Owen Wilson.

Bill Murray caught drunk, driving a golf cart in Sweden?

(luxuriating in a hot tub, naked with two blonde hotties, Bill later secured sympathy for his crime aganst society while laughing wildly)

Criminal.

Bill Murray is a genius??? News to me. I always thought everyone around him ended up carrying him.

My x-girlfriend, her weiner dog and me rode around drunk on a golf cart, a seaside resort area south of Houston. Good fun!
We pulled into the drive of the B&B at dawn, bid our (born again) host a good morning and
went to bed, finally.

But Bill is playing Nike blades in the pic--blades! You can't wear that hat and play blades!

"....Mr. Murray was apprehended after an extremely low-speed pursuit...".

They need to leave Bill alone...wonderful guy.

I do think he is a genius. Not for Lost in Translation. For his role as BIG EARN AKA Earnie Mc Cracken in King Pin. Tangaray & Tab? Keep them coming sweets, I got a long ride ahead of me.

I figured the only times Bill gets cited is when he's caught publicly SOBER.

My company is made up of all golfers except me. I like to go to a driving range every now and then but they ask me to leave when I bring out my aluminum bat. My niche on our golf outings is to drive the beer cart from hole 9 to hole 1, then repeat. I must be doing a good job because we have never made it to the back 9.

I thought that was the whole point about golf, getting lit and zooming around in golf carts

My oh my! Poor Bill. If he has to do time in Sweden, he might have to eat the fruit soup, like my Swedish-American girlfriend fed me one Christmas. It was a fate too harsh. I am still cringing. Run Bill, run!

OK-he had to be drunk to wear that hat. I did think Lost in Translation was brilliant. Never wanted to go to Japan until I saw that movie!

All he needs is a price tag hanging off the brim and he'd be a dead-ringer for Minnie Pearl.

he's considered a genius in France, why don't the Swede's just leave him alone, they're such trouble makers.

Common Folks, rally around ! We gotta save Bill, he's in trouble. Man, I can just see him driving that golf cart around Stockholm, bet they had FUN. Hope he doesn't spend too much time in jail. From an old Chicago X pat
