DEPP STUCK

Johnny Depp, who plays an undercover policeman on '21 Jump Street,' broke character long enough to assault a security guard in Vancouver, police said.

Depp, 25, was arrested and held in custody for three hours early Wednesday after police answered a noisy party complaint at a hotel in the West End section of Vancouver, where '21 Jump Street' is filmed. The trouble started when a security guard asked a group of people to leave the hotel and Depp allegedly then assaulted the guard. Telephones in the hotel lobby also were damaged in the incident. Depp was released after promising to appear in court April 12.
