LOS ANGELES -- A prominent attorney and former Democratic Assemblyman
arrested for allegedly running over a parking attendant with his car
before Saturday's USC football game at the Coliseum, was free on bail
Sunday.
Walter Karabian, 71, was arrested around 12:30 p.m. Saturday on
suspicion of assault with a deadly weapon.
He was released about 8:30 p.m. on $30,000 bail, a sheriff's deputy said.
Public Safety officers at Exposition Park, who arrested Karabian, did
not release details of the incident or the condition of the female
attendant.
The attendant was taken to a nearby hospital.
Karabian, an active member of the Armenian-American community,

Assembly in 1966, at the age of 28, where he served four terms.
At age 33, he became the Assembly's youngest majority leader in history.
In 1875, he and a USC classmate, John Karns, created Karns & Karabian Law Firm.
