Batman Star Christian Bale Arrested in London

Actor Christian Bale, star of the recent Batman franchise, was detained in London today after a reported altercation with his mother and sister. He has been released on bail. Reportedly this had something to do with a longstanding family dispute. Dain thinks Bale’s mom wouldn’t let him sleep in his bat cape.

From The Telegraph:

Sources said that Bale was accused of lashing out at his family members – pushing one of them – in an argument over a long-running family dispute.

Bale was arrested when he attended Belgravia police station in London today after his mother and sister had reported him to police.

He left the back of the station in a blacked out silver Mercedes people carrier and sped past the awaiting paparazzi and heavy security.

Bale gave a statement to detectives of his version of events in what was described by police sources as an allegation of a “minor” common assault.

The 34-year-old was bailed until September and will be allowed to fly back to his home in America.
