Meet Lou Rawls. The R&B singer was arrested yesterday (1/15) by Albuquerque police and charged with assaulting his girlfriend. According to the criminal complaint, the 69-year-old Grammy winner, in town to perform at a local casino, argued with Nina Inman over a former girlfriend. Inman, who was staying with Rawls in a room at the Wyndham Hotel, told cops that Rawls grabbed her by the hair and threw her to the ground (cops noted that they observed scratches on Inman's neck). Charged with battery, Rawls was released from the Bernalillo County Jail after posting $2500 bail. His show this evening at the Isleta Casino will go on (good seats still available at $20, $25, $30, and $35). (3 pages)
