Dog the Bounty Hunter posts Nicolas Cage's bail

For Nicolas Cage, this weekend has been like an episode of a reality TV show. First, the movie star is seen arguing with wife Alice on a New Orleans street, then he is arrested and soon after, the star of Dog the Bounty Hunter gets involved.

Cage's arrest early Saturday followed an incident involving charges of domestic abuse battery, disturbing the peace and public drunkenness. Turns out, Dog (aka Duane Chapman) posted bail for the movie star, the A&E cable reality series bounty hunter confirmed to E! News. But Dog would rather not elaborate.

"Media from around the world have been requesting interviews with me today after reports surfaced about my posting a bond for actor Nicolas Cage in New Orleans," Chapman told E! News. "I am a truly dedicated fan of Mr. Cage and will not be granting any interviews about my client as I wish to respect his privacy. I performed my duties as a bail bondsman and not in connection with our show. This is what I do for a living. There are two sides of my job: I release my clients after they have been arrested; and pick them up if they don't show up in court. I do not believe the latter will be the case for Mr. Cage."

Before his arrest, Cage was caught on surveillance camera arguing with his wife as companions and other witnesses looked on inside a tattoo parlor
