After getting into an odd back and forth with Dana White on Twitter over the weekend, former UFC fighter Jason "Mayhem" Miller was arrested on Monday in Orange County after breaking into a church.

According to a report from TMZ.com, Miller was arrested after allegedly breaking into the Mission Hills Church in Mission Viejo, Calif., spraying a fire extinguisher around, and stripping naked. Per deputies on the scene, the church was found trashed, with broken CDs, books, and pictures around the floors, and white fire extinguisher spray on the first and second floors.

Miller was found on the second floor, nude, and "totally awake and coherent." He was then taken into custody.

Over the weekend, Miller and White sparred on Twitter, with Miller at one point telling White to "kill himself" and challenging him to a fight. White later said he felt it was in fun at first, but then felt badly about the exchange after it became apparent Miller was serious. He added that he was concerned for Miller's mental well-being.

"He sent that tweet, I tweeted back, and I was joking," White said after Saturday's UFC 150 event (via MMAJunkie.com. "And as the tweeting went on, you saw – that kid's on medicine, he has some issues, and the last thing I want to do is have that kid more bummed out and depressed than he already is. He started talking like a jackass on Twitter, so I blasted him back. Now I kind of wish I didn't."

"I'm sure he's not going through a very good time right now, no matter how much he wants to say he is."

Penick's Analysis: There is likely to be some type of toxicology screen done on Miller, unless he simply admits what, if anything, he was on when he allegedly did all this. If he did it stone cold sober then there's really no explanation that would make sense, but either way this is just bizarre, bizarre behavior out of Mayhem, and supports White's contention that Miller's not in a good place in his life. What type of charges he's facing remain to be seen, but he'll likely face some fines and/or restitution in the least for any damage caused in the church.
