NEW YORK (AP) - Kiefer Sutherland has been charged with assault
for allegedly head-butting a fashion designer at a Manhattan
nightclub.
New York police said the charges were filed after Sutherland
spoke to investigators at a police station in lower Manhattan on
Thursday.
The star of Fox television's "24" reported to the precinct
house in a Lincoln Town Car alongside his lawyers, but he did not
speak to reporters.
The designer, Jack McCollough, claims Sutherland attacked him
after an argument, leaving him with a cut on his face.
It's unclear whether the charges will affect his probation
status for a drunken-driving conviction in Los Angeles that sent
him to jail for 48 days last year.
