Back in February of this year, Charlie Sheen was still thought of as a drunk cokehead abuser, but back in those halcyon days, we still had the deceny to be shocked, and tut-tut over his insanity/addictions. Over the next few months, many other shoes dropped, and at this point, I think many of us wish we had never heard anything about Charlie Sheen. Anyway, it was in February that Charlie’s Mercedes was “stolen” and then overturned in an LA ravine. Shocking! I don’t think we even did a story about it, because, you know, his car was stolen and someone crashed it, and we figured it didn’t really have anything to do with anything. Not so much… because mysteriously, the exact same thing happened AGAIN.

A silver Mercedes-Benz believed to belong to Two and a Half Men star Charlie Sheen has been found abandoned down a ravine off Los Angeles’ Mulholland Drive with its’ engine still running, RadarOnline.com has learned.

“I think it’s Charlie Sheen’s car,” a firefighter who first arrived at the scene initially told RadarOnline.com.

Several sources have since confirmed it is in fact Sheen’s car. According to Firefighters combing the area, no one was believed to have been inside when the vehicle went off the road.

As you’ll remember, a similar occurrence happened in the wee hours of February 5, 2010, when the actor reported his four-door Mercedes stolen and officials found it — at the bottom of a 100-foot cliff in Sherman Oaks, California.

An eyewitness at the scene said Tuesday’s incident was like “deja vu” to the previous one.
The latest car-off-the-cliff fiasco is just another headache for the embattled actor, whose name has been a tabloid mainstay since he was arrested on Christmas Day 2009 in Aspen, Colorado in connection with two domestic violence-related felony charges. After agreeing to a plea deal in June, Sheen will be sentenced July 12. In the meantime his wife, Brooke Mueller, has moved out of Charlie’s Beverly Hills mansion and into a Los Feliz home, and telling friends that she’s moving on.

So what’s the verdict? I have three theories – one, Charlie is giving away his cars to pay for drugs or whatever, and the dealers keep crashing them. Two, Charlie gives away his cars to various junkie/lush friends, and they keep crashing them. Or three, Charlie is in the car somehow, either driving or as a passenger, and he gets some kind of erotic kick out of crashing his own cars. I was playing around with another theory involving insurance fraud, but that wouldn’t really make sense… would Charlie need the money from insurance? Not to my knowledge.
