Bale, 34, attended a police station after it was reported his mother and sister had reported him to police.

The alleged incident was believed to have taken place on Sunday night at Park Lane's Dorchester Hotel where Bale is staying.

His mother Jenny, 61, and sister Sharon, 40, are said to have gone to a police station in Hampshire to make the allegation, which was subsequently referred to the Metropolitan Police.

The allegations weren't set out specifically, so I don't know what lies behind this odd story.

I'll have to see if I can find it, I read somewhere else that he assaulted either the mother or sister or both.

That's what I heard this morning, Mom & Sister.

Strange indeed.

the gossip I read said that Mom and Sister fall into the "dysfunctional" side of the family and rumor is they may have pushed him over the edge. Another person said he was charged with "verbal assault" (wth??)

anyway, I also found out that Gloria Steinem is his stepmother. His father died a few years ago.

Apparently Britain has laws against verbal assualt, two differant categories.  First is for like swearing at people, and the other is for actually threatening them with physical violence.

From what I've read, he posted bail, but wasn't charged.  The story also said he "pushed past" his mother to leave, but didn't actually "attack" her.  His mother claims she didn't call the police over the matter, but she was more then happy to let them deal with it.  She sounds like a nutball though.

What did he do, slap them while screaming "P-51, Cadillac of the Sky!" as he reenacted his scenes from Empire of the Sun?

Side note: I didn't realize he was that kid. Boy, was he annoying in that movie!

I could give a **** about what happens in Hollywierd , the actors, etc. They're overpaid court jesters. What boggles MY mind is why Americans have allowed them to be held in such esteem.
