‘Grease’ Actor Eddie Deezen Arrested For Burglary, Trespassing in Nursing Home

Actor Eddie Deezen — best known for playing nerdy Eugene Felsnic in the original ‘Grease’ movies–was recently arrested for forcing his way into a nursing home.

According to the Maryland State Police, Deezen pushed his way inside a privately-owned nursing facility on April 8 and refused to leave.

A woman alleged Eddie almost forced his way into one of the rooms before getting kicked out, but she says he refused to leave the property and got busted when officers showed up.

Police say Eddie was at the place earlier in the day and was told to leave. But he came back that night and that’s when police were called. The alleged victim told police Deezen has been by her place several times before, claiming he usually leaves behind items with accompanying notes.

Eddie’s charged with fourth-degree burglary, two counts of trespassing and one count of disturbing the peace. He is still in police custody.

People who say they’re close to Eddie shared an update on Facebook, claiming he’s battling issues and his family is doing all they can to help him.
