Appearing in court this morning, Torn was charged with criminal trespass, criminal mischief, burglary, carrying a gun while intoxicated and without a permit (which had expired in 2007). His case was kicked-up to another court due to the gravity of the charges and his case was continued to Feb. 17.
Rip Torn ordered no plea and is entering a NY-based alcohol treatment/rehab facility sometime this week.
Police say he was "incoherent" and had placed his boots and hat by the front door of the bank, which he'd entered by breaking a window. He did not brandish the gun when approached by police and continually asked why they were removing him from his home.
