UPDATE: Christian Bale's offense may be mouthing off to mom

Add a Comment

July 22, 10:20 AM

by Liz Barrett, Celebrity News Examiner

Everybody knows by now that Batman has been busted for allegedly assaulting his mum and sis, but no one knows exactly what he supposedly did. (British cops can keep a secret.) TMZ reports, however, that Christian Bale was arrested for verbal assault, and they say one of Bale's reps is backing that story.

Who knew, but we called around jolly old England and found there is such a thing as verbal assault, Class 4 and Class 5. Class 4 is more aggravated than 5, with "an intent to cause alarm."

Was Christian's offense mouthing off to mom? We're checking.

Mom, are you listening? We're sorry for all those things we said. Please don't have us arrested.
