Hollywood actor, Alec Baldwin arrested, charged for assault and harassment in New York
On Friday, Hollywood actor and TV presenter Alec Baldwin was arrested in New York for allegedly punching a 49-year-old man in the face during a parking dispute.
The 60-year-old who lives in downtown Manhattan with his second wife and their four young children, was arrested in Greenwich Village.
“Police got a call around 1:30 pm (1730 GMT) regarding an assault in progress. When we got there, we discovered that it looked like two individuals were fighting over a parking spot,” the spokeswoman said.
The younger man had already parked his vehicle and was attempting to purchase a parking ticket, when he got into a dispute with Baldwin, “who then punched him in the face,” the officer said. She said the unnamed man was taken to hospital in “stable” condition, while Baldwin was in custody awaiting charges.
Baldwin is well known for his hot temper and for impersonating Trump on satirical US television show “Saturday Night Live.”
In 2014, he was detained by New York police for riding his bicycle the wrong way down a street. In late 2013, NBC scrapped his late-night chat show after he allegedly subjected a photographer to a homophobic slur outside his apartment on the day that a Canadian actress convicted of stalking him was jailed.
