LONG BEACH >> Punk and skateboarding icon Duane Peters was arrested on suspicion of felony domestic violence and is scheduled to be in court Tuesday, Long Beach police officials said Sunday.

The 52-year-old known as “The Master of Disaster” was picked up in the 4000 block of Third Street by Long Beach police early Saturday morning, according to Sgt. Megan Zabel, spokeswoman for the Long Beach Police Department. Earlier reports citing Los Angeles County Sheriff’s booking records stated Peters had been arrested just before midnight Friday.

He is being held on $50,000 bail in Long Beach Jail.

Long Beach police records also indicate Peters lives in Long Beach though he’s been a long-time Orange County resident.

Peters is best known as the singer in the punk rock band U.S. Bombs, which formed in 1993 and toured nationally and internationally. In 2000 he formed the less political, more melodic punk band Duane Peters and the Hunns.

Credited with inventing many innovative and risky tricks in the skateboard world — he was the first skater ever to do a full loop in a full-pipe, Peters first made history for winning skate contests.

The man once known for rocking Santa Cruz skateboards quickly diversified and, some say, he became the first punk-rock skater. Even if that’s not true, Peters was certainly among the first skaters to fall in love with punk rock and manifest that love in his personal style.

In 2003, skateboarding magazine Transworld Skateboarding recognized Peters with the Legend Award. In May 2005, Black Label Skateboards released a biographical film titled “Who Cares: The Duane Peters Story.”
