This just in.
Village Voice Media executive editor Mike Lacey and chief executive officer Jim Larkin were arrested late Thursday night in Phoenix for publishing this week's cover story in Phoenix New Times.
That story revealed that a county grand jury had issued subpoenas demanding documents and notes regarding more than 30 stories the paper had published about controversial Maricopa County sheriff, Joe Arpaio.
Prosecutors also issued subpoenas demanding detailed personal information about anyone who had visited the Phoenix New Times website since 2004.
Lacey and Larkin were arrested by sheriff's deputies at their homes and led away in handcuffs. Both have since been released.
