Armie Hammer was busted for pot possession in Texas, two months ago

Well, this certainly doesn’t correspond to his image of a picture-perfect Disney prince. TMZ reports that Armie Hammer, star of The Social Network and currently up for a handful of Supporting-Actor awards for J. Edgar, is now officially a pothead. He was arrested in Texas for possession of pot cookies and one pot brownie. But this was back in November! How are we just hearing about it now?

“Social Network” star Armie Hammer — who played both Winklevoss twins in the movie — was arrested in Sierra Blanca, Texas for marijuana possession … the same small town where both Willie Nelson AND Snoop Dogg were busted for pot in the last year.

A drug-sniffing dog did the detective work, and allegedly found 3 medicinal pot cookies and 1 brownie. The incident occurred on November 30.

We’re told this occurred at a border patrol checkpoint.

Hammer spent 1 day in jail before bailing out on a $1,000 bond.

Armie comes from a well-to-do and powerful family, which might be one explanation for how this didn’t make headlines immediately. Except that I don’t think his family has much to do with him now that he’s in Hollywood? So my only other explanation is that people don’t really care about Armie Hammer, or about pot possession.

Also – this Texas town might need to get a grip with their drug laws, right?

Kate Major’s police report is epic; she punched a chick in the boob, attacked an officer


I’m not too familiar with reading police reports. The lengthy one on TMZ describing the drunken, abusive antics of Kate Major, a former Star Magazine reporter better known as both Michael Lohan and Jon Gosselin’s ex, makes me think that writing police reports must be a pain in the ass. Like how do cops remember and retall all the crazy things that whacked out perps do while on their watch? I would be inclined to write “bitch was crazy” when describing someone like Kate Major, who attacked two of her neighbors seemingly without provocation, resisted arrest while shouting obscenities, and continued her antics at the police station, where she was again belligerent and slapped a cop. I’ll let TMZ tell the Cliff Notes version of this story, but to get the full report you can read the PDF linked there. This has a really priceless mugshot too.

Kate Major is a racist, boob-punching, foul-mouthed, cop-assaulting criminal … if you believe the police report filed after her arrest in Boca Raton this weekend.

It’s insane — according to the report, obtained by TMZ, cops were called to an apartment parking lot around 9:45 PM on Saturday night … after Michael Lohan’s ex-GF was observed beating the crap out of a man and his wife.

Cops say … when they arrived to the scene, Major was being restrained on the ground by several people who saw her attack Rosario Tapia and Juan Jimenez.

The officer who wrote the police report explained, ‘I attempted to speak with Major, who was screaming and yelling obscenities at Tapia, calling her a ‘fat f**k’ and a ‘b*tch’.”

Jimenez told police … he has NO IDEA why he and his wife were attacked … but explained he and Tapia pulled into the parking lot and noticed someone had parked in their assigned space. So they were waiting for another spot to open … when Major came bolting towards the car out of nowhere.

Jimenez claims Major opened the door and went crazy — calling him and his wife “several racial names” before Major attacked his wife in the hands, breast and face.

When cops tried to arrest Major, police say she resisted arrest and tried to kick the officers.

Major was eventually arrested for battery and transported to a nearby jail — where she was an EVEN BIGGER pain in the ass, according to the report.

Cops say she yelled at police — and tried to make a break for it. At one point, cops say, she slapped the arresting officer and called him a “fat f**k.”

She was later charged with resisting arrest with violence and battery on a police officer.

Major has since been released from custody … but it sounds like this situation is far from over.

[From TMZ]

This chick just got out of 30 days in rehab a little over a week ago. She appeared as a guest on “Celebrity Rehab,” where her dysfunctional relationship with Michael Lohan played out in front of the camera. I guess the season aired last fall, and I just saw an awful clip from it on the best clips of 2011 episode of “The Soup.” Kate was crying and asked Michael why he was still with her, and he yelled something about how she would take it in any hole. He phrased it ever so slightly less crass than that, but that’s exactly what he meant. That sounds like a risky prospect for both of them, and I’ll just leave it at that.

Oh and in the police report they state that Kate’s roommate was with her when she decided to confront the neighbors by pulling them out of their car and yelling racist remarks at them. Then the roommate claims she was somehow absent and left the scene when Kate started to get physical. There’s more to this story than we’re being told, but it boils down to this chick being a mean drunken mess.

Brooke Mueller arrested in Aspen, charged with possession and assault

A few weeks ago, Brooke Mueller and Charlie Sheen (now divorced) appeared on Entertainment Tonight. The goal, I think, was trying to show the world that they were both doing well and raising their babies together. Unfortunately, they both seemed like they were blitzed out of their minds, Brooke even more than Charlie. Between the two of them, I’ve long suspected that Charlie is the one who is sober more often, and the one who can keep his junk together more consistently while high as a kite. Brooke just seemed like a total mess, like there is no point in her life where she is simply maintaining a veneer of “sobriety”. Anyway, my assumption was right. Brooke was just arrested in Aspen, Colorado for possession and assault.

Brooke Mueller was arrested while vacationing in Aspen, Colorado for felony cocaine possession with the intention to distribute early Saturday morning.

In a statement released by the Aspen Police Department, Charlie Sheen’s ex, 34, was also busted for a misdemeanor 3rd degree assault charge.

The mom of 2-year-old twin sons Bob and Max was released from Pitkin County Jail Saturday morning when she posted the $11,000 bond. Mueller has a District Court date of December 19.

On Christmas day in 2009, Sheen, 46, allegedly held a knife to Mueller’s throat and threatened to kill her. He later pled guilty on lesser charges and spent time in rehab, not jail. Since the incident, the two had lived apart, although their divorce wasn’t officially granted until this past May.

A source told Us Weekly in August that the parents have been “getting counseling and therapy [with] the boys” and Mueller, who has struggled with substance addiction, is “actually responding to treatment.”

[From Us Weekly]

According to Radar, everything went down at a series of clubs in Aspen. A woman came up to police officers at Belly Up Aspen, and the woman claimed that she’d been assaulted by Brooke. Officers found Brooke at Escobar, another nightclub and she was arrested and charged with “assault in the third degree (class one misdemeanor) and possession of cocaine with intent to distribute (class four felony).” And Radar’s source says, “How do you help someone like Brooke? Her parents even moved to Los Angeles to take care of her and help her take care of her kids, and that didn’t even help. With this latest development, her friends are beyond caring anymore.”

Even People Magazine’s sources admit that Brooke is a cokehead disaster too – all of these anonymous “sources” seem to have been sent out to do damage control, and it speaks volumes that People Magazine got one of harsher critiques of Brooke: “Brooke can’t stay sober on her own. Maybe this [arrest] will force her to go into a treatment center for a long stay. Thirty-day rehabs won’t work for her. Her family has been trying to get her to do this, now maybe the court will force her to get the help she needs! She has enough family to take care of the kids while she’s away.” But! Brooke’s rep, Steve Honig (the same rep as LINDSAY LOHAN for the love of God, THAT should tell you something) tells People Mag: “I think anyone who is truly a friend of Brooke’s would not be spending their time talking anonymously and behind her back to the media. I seriously question the validity of any comments made by these people alleging to be friends with Brooke.” Yeah, I think the anonymously-sourced quote comes from her family, and I feel bad for them. They probably are hoping that the legal system will help clean up this mess.

Kate Major, Michael Lohan’s ex, arrested at the airport for being drunk and abusive

Kate Major gives Michael Lohan’s other piece the side eye

Remember Kate Major? She’s the former Star Magazine reporter who hooked up with Jon Gosselin in 2009 and then cried in several interviews about how he promised her a job as his assistant, prompting her to quit her job gossiping. Jon of course ditched her after just two weeks for another woman. Then she started dating Michael Lohan and was involved in an abusive relationship with him for over a year. Major was on the Dr. Drew show yesterday detailing the physical and emotional abuse she suffered while dating Lohan. I saw a bunch of clips online from the show and it was hard to watch. She explained that Lohan, currently in jail, had threatened to kill her and then commit suicide, and that he regularly flew into rages and hurt her. She also said that Lohan was in possession of sex tapes of the two of them together that he made without her knowledge and that he was threatening to release them. Also, there was a very awkward scene were another one of Lohan’s ex lovers was on the couch with Kate and talked about how she had a relationship with Michael while he was supposedly dating Kate. Poor Kate was seething and holding back tears.

I came away from watching that feeling sorry for her and thinking that Kate had a drinking problem. I’ve seen her look drunk in interviews before and on Dr. Drew she looked bloated and hungover to me. Well my assumption probably wasn’t far off the mark. Kate was hauled off a Delta flight early Monday morning for being drunk and she was arrested for being abusive to the person escorting her off the plane. TMZ had the detail that she was even in first class. The Dr. Drew show must have been paying for it.

According to the LAX police department, Kate was denied boarding by Delta airline “due to being intoxicated” at 12:05 am Monday.

“Los Angeles Airport Police responded to Terminal #6 (in the gate area) for a report of an irate passenger refusing to de-board an aircraft as requested by the airline.

“As Major deplaned under escort by airline personnel, she committed battery on the subject conducting the escort,” according to the statement released.

Kate was placed under a citizen’s arrest and airport police took her into custody, processed her into the Airport Police station and she was released about 2 am. Lindsay was released from jail at 1:30 am.

Kate has a court date schedule for this arrest at a later date, but she has to be in court on Tuesday, November 8 for her temporary restraining order against Michael Lohan, who is in jail right now for violating the restraining order.

Michael has a November 9 court date.

[From Radar Online]

I guess you’d have to have some major issues to date both Jon Gosselin and Michael Lohan. This woman is a wreck, and sadly now I’m starting to believe some of Michael Lohan’s claims that she was abusive to him, too. I’m sure she got the worst of it, but it sounds they had an incredibly toxic relationship. You just know that Lohan is going to get out of jail and go running back to her. We’re sure to hear about it, because it won’t end well.

Jon Gosselin may sue after Kate Plus 8 editor arrested for pedophilia

wenn2891358
Jon Gosselin has responded to the fact that one of the longterm editors of his kids’ reality show, “Jon & Kate Plus 8,” was arrested last month and charged with 10 counts of “sex exploit of minor (3rd) 14-1.” According to Radar, that means the film editor “possessed material that contained a visual representation of a minor engaging in sexual activity.”

TLC was quick to issue a statement that the man was a subcontractor through another company, that he was never in contact with the Gosselin children, and that he’s been fired. Jon Gosselin tells Star [via Radar] that he’s met this man a few times, though, and that he’s considering legal action against TLC. I don’t blame him. This is despicable. Plus TLC had Jon up against a legal wall when he tried to get out of his contract and do media appearances, and now he’s got a legitimate reason to sue them. Jon told Star that the alleged pedophile had access to all the raw footage of his children that was filmed, including potty training, showers, etc. He’s in contact with authorities to see if any unaired private footage was potentially distributed by this creep. As a mom, Jon’s response makes a lot of sense to me and sounds completely reasonable and even restrained. Here’s more:

As RadarOnline.com previously reported, William Blankinship was arrested on October 21 on 10 counts of sexually exploiting a minor, and now the reality show dad told Star in an exclusive interview that he is sickened by the news.

“My first thought when I heard this was, ‘Oh my God!’” Jon said. “I’m sure everyone working on the show is shocked and never expected something like this.”

The father of eight, who met Blankinship several times, said he is distressed about the access the film editor had to raw footage of the kids he shares custody of with their mother, Kate Gosselin.

“I have contacted an attorney and I’m trying to gather all the information from the authorities in North Carolina to see if there is any evidence he has footage of our family or if he has distributed it.”

Gosselin said he has not discussed his concerns with his ex-wife, but plans to contact her about the situation. “I will write her an email because I feel this is going to explode, because it is so bad,” Jon told Star.

For now though, Jon said he is primarily concerned about footage Blankinship might have seen. “Of course we filmed potty training…Any parent would be freaked out by this, because the cameraman definitely shot the kids getting ready for bed, being showered and being changed.”

For more exclusive details from Star magazine’s exclusive interview with Jon Gosselin pick up the latest issue of Star — on newsstands Thursday.

[From Radar]

It’s so telling that Jon is the one speaking out about this, not Kate. I’m not saying that Kate necessarily doesn’t give a crap, just that she’s not going to say anything about it because she’s prepping her kids for a long career in show business. She has a lifestyle to support and getting worried about some creep ogling at her kids is not on her agenda.

Michael Lohan arrested again after trying to flee cops by leaping off balcony, running

lohanheader
The last we heard of Lindsay Lohan’s abusive father, Michael, he was being charged with domestic violence after visiting his on-again girlfriend in Tampa, FL earlier this week ahead of a hearing they were set to attend for an earlier instance of domestic violence between them. Lohan’s girlfriend, Kate Major, claims that during that visit they had sex, after which she got upset because he didn’t pull out as she requested. Lohan also went wild, Gibson-style, over not getting a beej. Major told police that Lohan grabbed and shoved her, causing bruising, and that he threatened to throw her off the balcony and slit her wrists. After that happened Lohan was presumably told to stay away from Major. So of course he called her a bunch of times and probably taped it all. Major then called the cops to complain. When police went to Lohan’s hotel to arrest him, he jumped off the third floor balcony, got hurt of course and then tried to hide in some trees. Later he claimed that it was all Major’s fault anyway. What a dumbass.

Michael Lohan was just arrested AGAIN in Florida after allegedly contacting his GF Kate Major — and law enforcement tells TMZ, he tried to escape by jumping off a 3rd-story balcony … and plummeting 34 feet to the ground.

According to law enforcement sources, Tampa police responded to a call early this morning from Kate, who claimed Michael had been trying to contact her by phone and wouldn’t leave her alone.

We’re told officers interviewed Kate at her apartment after she made the call — the same apartment where Michael allegedly bruised her up earlier this week — and while they were there, Michael allegedly called again.

According to law enforcement, officers believed Michael was a “threat” — so they rolled up to his hotel to arrest him.

But here’s the crazy part — law enforcement tells TMZ, Michael tried to escape by hopping his 3rd story balcony … but crashed to the ground … and then tried to hide in some trees.

After officers pulled him down, Michael was placed under arrest for violating a condition of his pretrial release (presumably for contacting Kate) … and resisting arrest without violence.

Michael is currently back in custody — at the same jail he was released from less than twelve hours ago.

5:30 AM — Michael is currently in the hospital getting a possible foot injury checked out.

[From TMZ]

Well at least he doesn’t have to claim he’s suffering from chest pains in order to go to the hospital instead of the jail this time! Major issued a statement to TMZ claiming that “I am sick of being lied about by Michael Lohan Sr.’s false allegations about his continual physical and mental abuse toward me.” Lohan spoke to paparazzo (video below and onRadar) stating that “Major ‘baited’ him into calling her by claiming she was about to be evicted from her apartment.” I believe Major, not that I care too much either way. How much do you want to bet that Lohan called the photographer himself and then sold the footage?

Michael Lohan arrested for domestic violence again, complains of chest pains again

fp_7024563_lohan_michael_ny
Michael Lohan has been arrested, yet again, for yet another domestic violence incident with a girlfriend. When it comes to Lindsay’s dad’s storied criminal history it’s hard to recount it all, but been accused on other occasions of abusing at least two different girlfriends, including the latest on-again one, Kate Major, who can’t seem to quit him. He also spent two years in prison on a four year sentence for several charges including assault and drunk driving. (Before he was even out of jail in ’07 he would regularly communicate with the press about Lindsay, of course.)

TMZ has the details from the police report and it’s disturbing. Apparently Lohan and Major fought when she wouldn’t give him a beej, and also after they had sex and he refused to pull out. It’s unclear if the two incidents are the same. Lohan squeezed Major’s arms, pushed her, and threatened to slit her wrists and throw her off the balcony. Lohan complained of chest pains, so instead of being taken to jail he was taken to the hospital. This is the exact same thing he did in March when he was arrested for three counts of felony domestic violence against Major. He complained of chest pains and got taken to the hospital back then too. Rinse and repeat.

Michael Lohan’s ex-girlfriend told police … he flipped out and threatened to kill her because “she wouldn’t give him a ‘bl*w job’” … this according to the police report obtained by TMZ.

According to the report, Lohan’s ex, Kate Major, told police Michael came over to her Tampa apartment last night, when he began to yell at her about an upcoming domestic violence court hearing. Major claims the argument got heated … and MiLo got violent.

Major claims Lohan pushed her multiple times and squeezed her arms. She claims Mike also told her he would “slit both his wrist and her wrist. He also threatened to throw her off the balcony (4th floor).”

Kate says Michael threw a TV remote control at her … but he missed, so he smashed her cell phone.

Major also told police Lohan came over to her apartment the night before … and they got into an argument that turned physical. Major says she threatened to call police, but Michael banged his head on a door, causing his forehead to bleed … and warned that if cops came over, he would blame her for the injury.

Major told cops she regretted not calling police at the time, but insists “she was scared.”

Lohan also spoke with police …insisting last night’s incident was triggered by a sexual encounter … described in graphic detail in the police report.

“[Kate Major] did not want Michael to ejaculate inside her. Michael Lohan stated he did ejaculate in her and his girlfriend got very angry.”

Michael told cops Kate told him she may have been pregnant from previous sexual encounters with him … which caused an argument … but Lohan insists he never laid a hand on Kate.

Michael also told cops the cut on his forehead was caused by Kate … who slammed her apartment door in his face on the previous night.

As we previously reported, Lohan complained of chest pains … so cops took him to a nearby Tampa hospital, where he was treated … and then arrested for domestic violence.

Lohan claimed in his statement to police that he and Kate were going to court today to drop a previous restraining order that was in place against him. We’re guessing those plans have changed.

[From TMZ]

This is the trashy, abusive manipulative creep that was Lindsay Lohan’s sometimes father figure. In no way does this excuse or justify her behavior, her addictions or her sense of clueless entitlement, it just kind of explains where it came from. Time and again we’ve seen how much of a bottom feeding scumbag Michael Lohan is. It’s just a matter of time before he’s in jail again. Like father like daughter.

Matthew Fox punched a woman in the boob, stomach and biscuits

wenn3249626

You know how I said that Matthew Fox was an egotistical jagoff? Guess what? He punches women in the biscuits too. TMZ initially reported that Matthew Fox drunkenly assaulted a woman in Cleveland two nights ago when he punched her in her breast and her vadge. Then TMZ changed the story to “breast and stomach area” because I guess that sounds better…? The woman says he definitely punched her in the biscuits though.

Matthew Fox was detained by cops in Cleveland, Ohio Saturday night after allegedly assaulting a woman outside of a bar … TMZ has learned. Law enforcement sources at the scene tell us … the “Lost” star allegedly tried to enter a party bus — even though he wasn’t a guest on the vehicle.

We’re told the woman who was driving the bus tried to block Fox from getting on board — at which point, he allegedly punched her in the breast and the “stomach area.”

Fox was handcuffed by an off-duty officer — and was later detained by police. Fox was released without being formally arrested. An assault report was taken and the matter remains under investigation.

We have not been able to reach Fox for comment.

UPDATE: According to the police report, obtained by TMZ, the woman PUNCHED BACK — and struck Fox “in the mouth … causing a cut on his lip.” The woman told police she may have broken her hand during the altercation. Fox was later released to a friend … who put the actor into a taxi and accompanied him back to his hotel.

[From TMZ]

TMZ then got an exclusive with the woman with the punched boob, who told them that she only punched back in self-defense. I believe her too.

The woman who punched Matthew Fox in the face this weekend tells TMZ … she HAD to let her fists fly because the actor struck first and she needed to defend herself. TMZ spoke with Heather Bormann … who tells us she was driving a party bus for a private party Saturday night in Cleveland — when Fox boarded the vehicle.

Bormann claims she told Fox he wasn’t welcome on the bus — but he was too drunk to understand. Bormann says, “He just kept staring at me with his mouth wide open and not saying anything. I told him, ‘You have to leave buddy. You are trespassing on my bus.’”

That’s when Fox “leaned in and started punching my crotch and breast.”

Bormann says, “I took one hand to his jaw and he was spitting blood. He stumbled backwards.”

“This was my self-defense,” Bormann says … adding, “This was the only way I could protect myself…..from a man beating up on a woman.”

Bormann says she’s meeting with prosecutors today — and may press charges.

[From TMZ]

I can’t even imagine being punched in the biscuits. Why would a man (or anyone?) do that? “This woman is pissing me off, let me sock her in the vadge!” For why? Notice I’m not talking about being punched in the boob – I’ve been punched in the boob before, accidentally. They’re just so big! I accidentally hit myself in the boob all the time.

Anyway, this is your woman-beater post of the day. I was thinking about writing something on Chris Brown, but really, he’s not worth my time. And I will seriously believe any bad story about Matthew Fox. He seems like a narcissistic bastard, a drunk, a womanizer and a loser.

Redmond O’Neal arrested for possession of heroin (again)

redmondoneal1
After Amy Winehouse died and everyone said all those thoughtful things about addiction (at least some people did, others remained clueless) I began to take a different view of it. It just seems freaking sad to me and so useless. This story in particular makes my heart hurt a little. Redmond O’Neal, who had to to attend his mom Farrah Fawcett’s funeral in handcuffs, was arrested on possession of heroin yesterday. He was in violation of probation for an earlier arrest for drugs and was sent to jail without bail.

Redmond O’Neal has another mug shot to add to his portfolio and RadarOnline.com has the latest.

The 26-year-old was arrested in Santa Monica, Calif. on Tuesday after he ran a red light and police found heroin in his car during a routine inspection.

“At approximately 8:45 a.m. a motor officer observed an argument at a store on Lincoln corner of Michigan,” a police spokesperson told RadarOnline.com. “O’Neal was one of those involved in the argument.

“The officer then watched as he got into his vehicle. He proceeded to go northbound on Lincoln before turning west bound on Olympic, it was at this time the officer observed him going through the red turn arrow.”

The spokesperson continued: “The officer stopped him for the traffic violation. A search of his vehicle was done and narcotics were recovered.”

O’Neal is currently being held without bail.

[From Radar Online]

I tried to review Redmond’s storied history with the law and the details were so complicated it was hard for me to figure out which arrest he was in violation of. Here’s a partial recap. He was arrested in September, 2008 along with his dad, Ryan O’Neal, when cops raided the home they shared, (as part of a probation investigation, natch) found meth, and charged them both with possession. (The Enquirer ran a follow up story claiming the two did drugs together regularly and that Ryan was incredibly abusive to his son. Another one of Ryan’s sons, Griffin, claimed on Larry King that his dad gave him cocaine when he was just 11.)

Redmond was ordered to rehab for meth possession for that charge while all Ryan had to do was attend some drug awareness classes. Redmond was arrested again in April, 2009 when he tried to bring heroin with him to visit a friend in jail. (This seems to be the charge he violated probation for with this latest arrest.) His mom Farrah died in June, 2009.

While on a 24 hour pass from court-ordered rehab in December 2009, Redmond used drugs. He was sent back to jail for 30 days, and then went back to rehab yet again, graduating from his court-appointed drug program in August, 2010. So the kid went to rehab many, many times after multiple arrests and he was supposedly clean last year.

Redmond’s mom Farrah left most of her $4.5 million estate to him, leaving nothing to her parasitic boyfriend, Ryan. So we have a young man who is a millionaire addict who lost his mom to cancer and has an abusive druggie for a dad. Maybe his siblings can reach out to him, but it doesn’t sound like he can be helped much at this point. Like Lilo, jail may be the best place for him. Oh and Redmond’s older half brother, Griffin, was hospitalized and released yesterday after a car accident in Escondido, CA. He seems to be ok now though.

Rhys Ifans arrested at Comic-Con after shoving a woman & bashing America

fp_4533072_ang_greenberg_08_09

Many think that alcohol not only loosens tongues, but acts like some kind of truth serum. “In vino veritas” and all of that. Personally, I found that different alcoholic beverages make me feel different things. Tequila always makes me a happy, giddy drunk. Whiskey makes me amorous. Vodka makes me kind of depressed. Gin makes me really, really sick. I’ve never really found a drink that makes me racist or xenophobic. Well… I might have talked trash to some English guys about the UK, but I ended up making out with all of them, so it doesn’t count, right?

So what does it say about Rhys Ifans when he gets hammered at Comic-Con (in San Diego, California, FYI) and starts bad-mouthing America? Does Rhys hate America? Or was it just the liquor? More importantly than the America-bashing, what does it say about Rhys that he shoved and acted aggressive and belligerent towards a female security guard? Woman-hater? Violent misogynist? Or was it, once again, just the alcohol?

“The Amazing Spider-Man” villain Rhys Ifans was arrested and cited for misdemeanor battery for shoving a female security guard before Friday night’s Comic-Con panel for the film, police tell TheWrap.

Ifans, who smelled of alcohol, became irate when a member of his entourage was unable to enter the hall for lack of proper credentialing, police said. They said he shoved the guard in order to pass through, and was allowed to participate in the panel, but the guard subsequently made a citizen’s arrest.

A spokesman for Sony said that Ifans “deeply regrets the incident.”

“He was aggressive and belligerent,” Lt. Andra Brown said of the Welsh actor. “He was… berating everyone from the security staff to the United States of America.”

“He was cited and released, which is a non-custodial misdemeanor arrest,” added Brown, who said that the San Diego City Attorney will now determine whether to pursue charges. Ifans could be required to pay a fine, or could contest the case before a judge.

“But, according to him, the U.S. sucks and he doesn’t want to come back,” Brown said.

An individual with knowledge of the incident said security was very “tight and aggressive backstage.” The person said Ifans stepped outside to smoke a cigarette, and when he tried to get back in security tried to stop him and his entourage, which escalated into an argument.

Ifans also marked his 44th birthday Friday, according to the birthdate on his passport provided by police.

In Sony’s “Spider-Man” reboot, due next summer, Ifans plays the villainous Lizard, a scientist who takes on reptilian features after looking for a way to grow back his missing arm.

“Rhys Ifans was detained by Comic-Con security after a brief incident backstage prior to and immediately following the ‘Amazing Spider-Man’ panel,’” a spokesman for Sony said in a statement. “Police were notified and a citation was issued to Mr. Ifans, who deeply regrets this incident.”

Ifans’ agent did not immediately respond to a request for comment.

Ifans joined the “Spider-Man” panel late, after a sneak preview introducing his character. He spoke little, and co-stars Andrew Garfield and Emma Stone and director Marc Webb fielded most of the questions.

Here is a statement to TheWrap from Lt. Brown:

“Rhys Ifans (the Lizard in the new “Spider-Man” movie) was placed under citizen’s arrest for battery on a security guard. A member of his entourage did not have proper credentials for the entrance he was at. He was abusive, belligerent, and aggressive, and shoved a female security guard aside to shove his way through. After the panel, he was cited and released. He was verbally abusive to all around…security, the PD and the USA. After receiving his citation he left the venue.”

[From The Wrap]

On one side, I feel for Lt. Brown, just because I can totally imagine how much it sucks for an adult woman trying to act as a security guard in a sea of kids and nerds. I also think that there might be a missing part to this story, a part where Rhys pulled the “Don’t you know who I am?” card and Lt. Brown didn’t know, nor did care, and that is what made this incident worse: wounded celebrity pride on Rhys’s part. All of that being said, DUDE, get a grip. You’re at Comic-Con! Stop shoving women and acting like a d-bag.
