Village People 'Cop' in Trouble With The Law
DALY CITY, Calif. - Victor Edward Willis, the original policeman in the 1970s music group the Village People, was arrested by real police who allegedly found a gun and drugs in his convertible.
Willis, who co-wrote disco hits such as "Macho Man" and "In the Navy" before leaving the Village People in the late 1970s, was taken into custody Monday after an officer stopped his Chevrolet Corvette.
Police said Willis didn't have a valid license or identification and at first lied about his name and residence. Inside the car, the officer found a .45-caliber handgun as well as rock cocaine and drug paraphernalia, police said.
Traces of cocaine and other paraphernalia were also found his home at a mobile home park in Daly City, just south of San Francisco, police said. Willis also had an outstanding felony warrant for possession of narcotics.

Maybe there attempting any kind of stunt to regain their popularity. I never cared much for the village people though...
Probably not.
UH-OH, what if this is just the beginning of an ironic trend for the former Village People; what's next? the construction guy's buildings fall down, the chief's smudge sticks start a fire, who are those other guys? Why were there no girls in the village anyway, were they all just too smart to join?
