Guns N’ Roses Guitarist’s Elaborate Marriage Proposal Under Police Investigation

What was always going to be a situation full of pressure, stress and anxiety has ended in a police probe, when Guns N’ Roses’ guitarist DJ Ashba got carried away with his plan to pop the question to his girlfriend.

The couple apparently went for a ride in a police helicopter prior to the big moment, and the axe man really put his foot in it when he posted an image to Instagram of the two mid-flight with a caption that thanked the Las Vegas Police Department “for the most amazing helicopter private tour over Vegas!”

The flight was followed by a special candle lit dinner atop the police station with a table decked out “In roses n a bottle of the bubble stuff”, forcing police to investigate whether or not this was a policy breach.

Considering that taxpayers would be footing the bill, the powers that be are none too pleased with Ashba’s efforts. A spokesperson from the police department Bill Cassell has confirmed to The Las Vegas Review that an investigation is currently underway.

In other Gunners news, the band have hinted that their brand-new album will be in the hands of fans by the tentative date of 2014.
