Hohoho. Everybody’s favourite misogynist and wife-batterer was arrested on Christmas Day following some alleged festive domestic violence…and it has now turned out that a weapon might have been involved. Oooooooh.

The 44-year-old Two and a Half Men star was arrested yesterday morning in Aspen, Colo., and released that night after posting an $8,500 bond.

Aspen Police Department spokeswoman Stephanie Dasaro tells E! News the felony menacing charge Sheen is facing would not go into further detail—for the record, they aren’t naming the victim, either—other than to say the count does involve “a weapon of some sort.”

He spent 8 hours in the holding cells before the coppers let him go.

Other reports are suggesting that his missus (Brooke Mueller) might have been legally trollied, whereas Charlie was not, so it really isn’t quite clear what went down. But, of course, it had to involve the MaSHEEN. Because that’s what he does: kicks ass, takes names…and then prescription pills, and then makes threatening phone calls. And bangs hookers.

Well, at least you can’t fault him for consistency.
