“Carlos Irwin Estevez, also known as the actor Charles I. Sheen, was brought to the Pitkin County Colorado Jail for booking and incarceration following his arrest by the Aspen Police Department,” Pitkin County Sheriffs Office patrol director Jeff Lumsden said in a statement.
“Officer Rick Magnuson placed Carlos Irwin Estevez , also known as Charlie Sheen, 44, of Encino, California under arrest for Second Degree Assault, a class four felony, Menacing, a class five felony and Criminal Mischief, a class one misdemeanor. All charges are coupled with a domestic violence component. Mr. Sheen is being held with no bond,” the press release continued.
“Aspen Ambulance responded to the scene, the victim did not require transport to the hospital. Sheen will be held in the Pitkin County Jail until his court appearance at the Pitkin County Courthouse. The date has not been set.”
“Mr. Estevez has a total bond amount of $8,500. As with all domestic violence cases, Mr. Estevez will remain incarcerated at the jail until his case undergoes its initial judicial review,” Lumsden added.
“During the court appearance Mr. Sheen will be advised of conditions of any bond and pre-trial release. Colorado mandates a protection order between arrestees for domestic violence and their victims. The Aspen Police Department anticipates providing an update on Saturday, December 26, 2009 with any additional information available.”
A rep for Charlie has urged fans to wait until the facts come out before jumping to judgement:
