Police were called to a Burbank Costco store after comedian Joan Rivers handcuffed herself to a shopping cart to protest the store’s refusal to sell her latest tome.
The 79-year-old “Fashion Police” host was being filmed by a camera crew Tuesday as she complained that the store refused to carry her book, “I Hate Everything… Starting With Me.”
Burbank city spokesman Drew Sugars says the store manager called police, who sent officers to the scene because they were uncertain of the scale of the situation.
They ended up escorting Rivers from the store, and she and her crew left without incident.
Sugars says there were no citations or arrests.
