Charlie Sheen was arrested Christmas morning for an attack on his wife, Brooke Mueller Sheen. HOLLYWOOD actor CHARLIE SHEEN spent Christmas Day behind bars - after he was arrested on suspicion of assaulting his wife. The Two And A Half Men star was taken into custody after cops received a 911 call at 8.34am on Christmas morning. Charlie was arrested on suspicion of Second Degree Assault, Menacing and Criminal Mischief. The alleged offence took place during a scuffle with his wife BROOKE MUELLER at a house she has reportedly been renting in Aspen, Colorado.
Apparently a row started on Christmas morning (yes, it's not always sweetness and harmony in the holiday season!) and the argument degenerated into Charlie Sheen grabbing Brooke Mueller by the throat.
Under Colorado law if there are accusations of domestic abuse then the assaulting party must stay in jail until a protection order can be put in place. So Charlie Sheen remains arrested and in jail until the court can meet and this be organised.
