Real estate savvy Chris Shelton, a member of Donald Trump's "Street Smarts" team on "The Apprentice" was arrested on Sunday morning at the Seminole Hard Rock Hotel & Casino in Florida for a disorderly conduct charge.

Shelton, famous for using chewing tobacco on the show and displaying sociopathic urges is one of the six remaining contestants competing for a job with Trump.

He was released after posting $250 bail.

According to a tribal police officer he heard Shelton getting loud in the hotel lobby and asked him twice to calm down. When he wouldn't the officer arrested him.

``He was loud and he just wouldn't calm down,'' a police spokesperson said.

Apparently, Shelton was peeved over a $20 cover charge for the hotel bar. A police report stated that ``there were several patrons in the area who were visibly shaken by his actions. After several attempts to calm Shelton, he continued to yell and curse, refusing to calm down and stop causing a scene.''

Sounds like classic nicotine withdrawal symptoms to us.
