Charlie Sheen arrested on suspicion of ‘assaulting wife’
Charlie Sheen spent Christmas Day in jail – after being arrested on suspicion of assaulting his wife.
Cops took the 44-year-old actor into custody after receiving a 911 call at 8.34am on Christmas morning.
The Two and a Half Men star was arrested on suspicion of second degree assault, menacing (knowingly placing someone in fear of imminent serious bodily injury) and criminal mischief (willfully damaging someone else’s property).
The alleged offense took place during a scuffle with his wife Brooke Mueller at a house in Aspen, Colorado.
“All charges are coupled with a domestic violence component,” a spokeswoman for the Pitkin County Sheriff’s Department said.
“Mr Sheen is being held with no bond.”
Cops arrived at a house in Aspen – which Mueller has reportedly been renting for three months – after receiving a 911 call at 8.34am.
A source close to Mueller, a real estate investor, told celebrity news website Radar Online that Sheen pushed Mueller after they began rowing on Christmas morning.
The same source claimed the couple, who wed in 2008 and have nine-month-old twin sons, have been having ‘significant marital problems’. But Sheen had reportedly flown to Aspen to spend Christmas with his wife.
Cops responded to the ‘domestic violence situation’ and arrested Sheen who was taken to the Pitkin County Jail.
