“#Sri Lankan beauty queen arrested after wild pageant brawl<\/strong>”<\/p>\n

\n

A Sri Lankan beauty queen who caused a pageant brawl over the crown has been arrested over the on-stage altercation, police said Thursday.<\/p>\n

Reigning \u201cMrs. World\u201d Caroline Jurie was arrested on charges of \u201csimple hurt and criminal cause\u201d in connection to the chaos Sunday night at a pageant in Colombo, the BBC reported<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Jurie, who is from Sri Lanka, started the ruckus when she jumped on stage as they crowned the new \u201cMrs. Sri Lanka\u201d winner Pushpika De Silva, the outlet reported.<\/p>\n

She snatched the crown off De Silva\u2019s head, claiming she was actually divorced and thus disqualified from holding the title.<\/p>\n

\u201cThere is a rule that prevents women who have already been married and are divorced, so I am taking steps to make the crown go to second place,\u201d Jurie told the crowd.<\/p>\n
