LOS ANGELES - A Chewbacca impersonator was arrested after being accused of head-butting a Hollywood tour guide who warned the furry brown Wookiee about harassing two Japanese tourists, police said Saturday.

“Nobody tells this Wookiee what to do,” “Chewie” from the “Star Wars” movies said before slamming his head into the guide’s forehead, the Los Angeles Times newspaper reported.

The 6-foot, 5-inch-tall 44-year-old man was charged Friday with misdemeanor battery and later released on $20,000 bail, the Los Angeles Police Department said.

Street performers at the world-famous cinema collect tips from tourists by posing for photos, but some are known to turn hostile if they don’t get money.
