[Update {4:52 p.m. EST): Bile doesn't know if he is really being arrested. After all, he was let out of the cop car at 4:49 p.m.]
[Update (4:53 p.m. EST): Bile says, "It could be a false alarm."]
[Update (4:57 p.m. EST): Bile says, "[T]hey are trying to confirm he has a legit drivers license. They are detaining him till they find out."]
[Update (4:59 p.m. EST): Bile says, "Yup he's been arrested... taking him to the KPD."]
[Update: More details on Sam will follow in the hours to come.]
[Update: This is what Bile says on his blog: "Apparently while leaving the parking deck after his trial Sam was stopped by a Keene Police officer believing he had a suspended drivers license. Sam being unwilling or unable to provide them with a valid license was held till it could be confirmed. About 10 minutes later they decided to take him to the KPD to be booked. That was at approximately 16:50."
[Update (5:52 p.m. EST): Here's another immediate video of his arrest.]*
[Update (6:41 p.m. EST): Nick of FreeKeene.com writes, "Sam has been released with a summons. More information; including video; will likely be forthcoming throughout the weekend."]
[Update (10:16 p.m. EST): Two other Porc411 calls were put up on BileofBlog.com a few hours ago: msg0058 and msg0059.]
