Chewbacca was arrested in the Ukraine after he was allegedly spotted campaigning for a candidate going by the name of "Darth Vader."

The man dressed in the costume is seen struggling with police after he was approached near a polling place. The man he was supporting, "Darth Vader," was running for mayor in Ukraine town.

He ended up being fined about $8, but said he couldn't pay it because his money is in a, quote, "intergalactic bank that has no branches on this planet."

If you're wondering who was behind all of this madness it was a political group called the "Internet Party" runs a lot of "Star Wars" characters for public office in Ukraine.

Here's a shot of "Chewbacca" awaiting his hearing before a judge. If only things like this would happen in the United States.
