OBIWAN KENOBI Arrested, Charged With Hit & Run. Dark Side Is Strong, Yo.

I suppose with a name like Obi Wan Kenobi, you shouldn’t expect a chap to be the most stable person in the world. Right?

Kotaku:

A 37 year-old man from Roseville, CA by the name of Obiwan Kenobi has been arrested and charged over a four car pile-up on a motorway last week.

Seems Kenobi, while driving, came across some cars backed up on the road. While trying to change lanes, he hit two of them then sped off, which went on to cause the pile-up.

He’s been charged with hit-and-run causing injury, but is currently out on bail.

What reports fail to mention is  why he’s got that name. Did he change it because he was anxious to avoid any Imperial entanglements?

You have wonder…if he had gotten away…would he have gone into hiding as…wait for it…Ben Kenobi? Surely no one would put two-and-two together!
