WRITE: Internet rich guy Julien Chabbott gets a ticket yesterday in SoHo. (
)
A rich playboy in a red Ferrari ran over the thin blue line yesterday as his reality-star girlfriend looked on.
Internet entrepreneur Julien Chabbott, 28, was arrested after he allegedly used his $260,000 luxury Spider to run over the foot of a cop writing him a ticket outside the tony Mercer hotel in SoHo yesterday, police sources said.
The escapade was captured on video by onlookers and posted on Youtube
.
Chabbott’s gal pal, Stephanie Pratt, 26, of MTV’s “The Hills” fame, watched the ruckus. She retrieved some items from the Ferrari once the incident was over, then left.
“Maybe it was just his ego or his attitude, but he should have just taken the ticket instead of causing a scene like he did,” said Damian Morys, 17, who filmed the sports-car showdown.
“She’s pretty hot,” the Queens teen said. “I’m going to ask her if I can drive the Ferrari.”
Chabbott — who started a social media business called “Line Snob” that gives information on wait times — was charged with assault, vehicular assault, disorderly conduct and obstruction of governmental administration.
Chabbot had parked outside the tony hotel The Mercer on Saturday at about 6 p.m. when a police officer approached and began to write him summonses for parking in a no-parking zone and failing to have a registration or inspection sticker, police sources said.
Chabbott then tried to grab the officer’s memo book — and even got into the Ferrari after the cop told him not to, the sources said.
Once Chabbott got into his car, he inched the vehicle forward while the cop said, “Stop, stop!” After Chabbott ran over the cop’s foot, the officer hit the driver-side window and yelled, “You ran down my f—ing foot!”
The cop then yanked the door open, pulled Chabbott out by his purple cardigan and threw him up onto the vehicle’s trunk.
“Assault a f—ing officer?” the officer bellowed as his partner came to help, and the two of them cuffed Chabbott face-down on the street.
“The kid should have taken a ticket, and the cop was very violent,” said a merchant who watched the arrest. “I think they’re both schnooks.”
A police source said the cop suffered injuries to his left hand and right foot. He can be seen limping in the video.
Chabbott lives on West 23rd Street in Manhattan. This is his only arrest, a police source said. Pratt stopped by his pad last night but refused to answer a reporter’s questions about the incident.
After graduating from Babson College in Massachusetts in 2006, Chabbott began work at his family’s import-export business, according to Entrepreneur magazine.
Pratt is the younger sister of reality-star bad-boy Spencer Pratt.
She once stripped naked for PETA and has spoken to interviewers about her battle with bulimia.
A representative for Stephanie Pratt also did not respond to messages and e-mails.
The Ferrari — which suffered several scratches on a driver-side panel — was impounded as arrest evidence.
