Police detained actor Or Ben Melech for questioning last night after he was caught riding a motorcycle on Rokach Street in Ramat Gan while his license was suspended last month. The actor was questioned at the Tel Aviv District Police station, after which he was released to house arrest and summoned to court. Ben Melech's representatives stated that "this is a lie, I didn't leave home at all yesterday evening. What happened was at 10 in the morning. I just started my motorcycle so the battery wouldn't die, and took a short ride on my street. Suddenly two undercover police officers jumped on me. They were waiting for me outside my home."
