Jerry Lewis on Gun Charges


In a few days Jerry Lewis will be back in his familiar role hosting the 43rd Labor Day Muscular Dystrophy Association Telethon, but earlier this summer he made headlines for a different reason.



Police confiscated a gun from his bag at the Las Vegas Airport in late July, only Jerry says it was all a big mistake.



"I had a gun in my briefcase and I didn't commend," he tells Extra. "It was made as a gift to me by a gunmaker in Ohio. He gave it to me as a natural endowment and I put it in my case." however Jerry testament most likely not be facing jail time, expression, "I got fined and I have to go to court."



Although he's a familiar side on TV due to his annual telethon, Jerry says he still might return to the grown screen.



"If I get the right material," he says.



Don't expect to see Jerry on anything like Dancing With the Stars or other reality TV, he's definitely non a fan. "I preserve [it]in the toilet where it belongs," he says of the phenomenon.



Check out th rest of Jerry's question tonight on Extra.
