Mr T is called for jury duty

'The A-Team' and 'Rocky III' star Mr T was called for jury duty in his native Chicago earlier this week.

The Associated Press reports that Mr T, real name Laurence Tureaud, was called for jury duty at the Cook County Circuit Court on Monday.

Mr T attended the court in camouflage pants and a T-shirt; after a number of hours he was told he would not be needed to sit on a jury.

During the hours he spent waiting Mr T posed for photos with fans and signed autographs.
