Good grief, Charlie Brown!
Authorities in California say the voice actor who portrayed Charlie Brown in not just the many "Peanuts" shows — but also the holiday classic "A Charlie Brown Christmas" — was arrested on charges that include stalking.
Accoridng to arrest and court records show that Charlie Brown voice actor Peter Robbins was alleged to have threatened violence against a La Jolla plastic surgeon and a San Diego police sergeant, though the incidents happened at separate times.
The surgeon, Dr. Lori Saltz, obtained a temporary restraining order against Robbins earlier this month after he threatened to "break her in half" after she performed plastic surgery on his girlfriend that he was not satisfied with. The restraining order covers herself, husband and their two kids.
Robbins was also arrested on Jan. 13 for allegedly skipping out on a bill at a La Jolla Hotel restaurant. Robbins threatened the sergeant who put him in handcuffs.
In the most recent incident, US Customs and Border Protection spokeswoman Angelica de Cima said Robbins was arrested Sunday at the San Ysidro Port of Entry. She told U-T San Diego that a background check yielded a warrant against Robbins from the San Diego County sheriff's department.
A sheriff's spokeswoman said she did not have details about the warrant.
The 56-year-old is set to be arraigned Wednesday on counts of making a threat to cause death or great bodily injury and of stalking. His manager has declined to comment.
Robbins was busted Sunday driving his silver 2006 Mercedes-Benz C230 by a border agent who requested a thorough investigation, the paper reports.
The check led agents to discover Robbins, who famously quipped in the holiday classic "My own dog...gone commercial," was wanted by San Diego cops on a felony warrant.
A 2008 Comic-Con interview reveals that Robbins began voicing "Charlie Brown" at 9 years old.
He has also appeared in "F Troop," "The Munsters" and "Get Smart."
According to the online report, Robbins goes by Peter "Charlie Brown" Robbins on Facebook and enjoys interacting with "Peanuts" fans.
Robbins was also the voice of Charlie Brown for "It's the Great Pumpkin, Charlie Brown."
