Puddle of Mudd singer Wes Scantlin has pleaded not guilty to a felony vandalism charge filed after his arrest at a home he recently lost in foreclosure.
Los Angeles District Attorney spokesman Greg Risling says Scantlin entered the plea on Friday.
The 43-year-old singer was arrested on January 9 by Los Angeles police and is accused of causing about $7,000 (Dh25,704) in damage to the home. He was also charged with misdemeanour trespassing.
He was charged on Wednesday, but left the courthouse before being arraigned and was ordered back on Friday.
Scantlin is suspected of damaging the home’s plumbing, a garage door and ripping an alarm system out of the wall.
If convicted, he faces up to three years in jail.
