Long Branch, N.J., police investigating a call last week about an “eccentric-looking old man” wandering the streets stopped Bob Dylan and asked him for some ID. “I’ve seen pictures of Bob Dylan from a long time ago, and he didn’t look like Bob Dylan to me at all,” said officer Kristie Buble, 24. Dylan was released after being escorted back to his hotel, where his tour staff vouched for him.
