Some people just can't handle fame and fortune. Quinton "Rampage" Jackson quite literally goes on a rampage.

Rampage: Wild Car Chase
Former UFC light heavyweight champion Quinton "Rampage" Jackson was arrested Tuesday afternoon after leading the police on a wild car chase in California through Cosa Mesa to Newport Beach.
According to the local paper Daily Pilot, Jackson allegedly hit two cars when he turned off the 55 Freeway into Newport Boulevard and continued driving even when a police officer -- who was unaware that Jackson had bumped into cars -- tried to pull him over for driving with a blown tire and talking on the cellphone.
Jackson struck more cars while evading the police and almost hit pedestrians when he drove onto the sidewalk. Jackson ran through several red lights before finally stopping for the police.
A witness told the Daily Pilot that there were about 10 police cars, several police motorcycles and a police helicopter on the scene. Guns were drawn on Jackson during his surrender to the authorities.
Jackson was released early Wednesday on $25,000 bail posted by UFC President Dana White, who upon hearing of Jackson's arrest, immediately flew from Las Vegas to the Orange County Jail.
Jackson has a hearing set for August 15 at the Harbor Justice Center in Laguna Niguel, California, where he will face charges of felony evading, reckless driving, and hit and run.
UPDATE - No injuries were initially reported, but the Daily Pilot received an email sent Wednesday from a pregnant lady claiming that she sustained unknown injuries when her 2007 Cadillac Escalade was hit by Jackson's truck.

well get this... the stupid guy that got kicked off, Jesse Taylor, is actually on the card to fight CB Dollaway (who lost to Amir in the season finale) this Saturday... check http://www.ufc.com/index.cfm?fa=eventDetai...rd&eid=1485 .. I guess Dana White is giving Jesse Taylor another chance even though he acted a fool at that casino...
Is this Saturday's fights on Spike?

Ah yes. Jesse Taylor. What a mook. Talk about a surprise ending in last season's finale. I figured Amir as one of the LAST ones to get to the finals, much less win the whole thing. AND to get CB with an arm bar AGAIN in the finals like he did in the semi's.
