Journey Drummer Pleads Not Guilty

According to StatesmanJournal.com (via Blabbermouth), Journey drummer Deen Castronovo has pleaded not guilty after being charged with recklessly endangering another person, interfering with making a police report, second-degree criminal mischief and harassment. 

Castronovo was arrested on January 21 for allegedly assaulting his former girlfriend. TMZ.com reported that Castronovo "also received additional charges when he took the phone away from the woman while she was trying to call her father."

The woman told police that she and Castronovo had been involved in a three-year relationship, but split up about four weeks prior to the altercation.

A representative of Castronovo's claims the altercation was "a misunderstanding that should not have been escalated to such a level in the first place."
