Jason london arrested in scottsdale, Actor Jason London is photographed in his emergency room bed after Sunday night's arrest in Scottsdale, Ariz. After being involved in a bar fight, the 'Dazed and Confused' star had an orbital fracture and other major injuries.
Actor Jason London, best known for his role as a stoner in 1993's "Dazed and Confused," was arrested Sunday night after a bar fight in Scottsdale, Ariz.
The 40-year-old actor's night then took an even worse turn — after police accused him of defecating in his pants in their squad car.
But a rep for London tells the News that the actor was in fact a victim of a vicious beatdown by the bouncers at the Martini Ranch bar and produced photos which show the actor hospitalized with a right orbital fracture, severe brusing and a concussion.
"It really doesn't matter what led to the incident even if he were being inappropriate," the rep said. "it's not acceptable for bouncers to take him outside and hold him in a headlock and beat him in the face until he was unconscious and then to keep beating him." London faces a long road to recovery, incluing two facial reconstruction surgeries, the source said.
"The 40-year-old was taken into police custody after they were called to the Martini Ranch bar and found London there nursing a swollen eye, Reuters reported.
According to the police report, the fight started after "an unidentified person complained London had sneezed on him and the person asked him to apologize."
"Instead of apologizing, London punched the person," the police report said. "He was escorted out by bouncers and during that time he hit them, leading the security guards to 'defend themselves' against London."
A 26-year-old bouncer, whose name was not released, was one of the victims listed. London was charged with assault with intent to injure and disorderly conduct, according to the news agency.
An eyewitness on the scene described the actor's behavior as "belligerent" and he started cursing at the paramedics when they tried to help him.
Once London was taken away in the police car an officer said they saw him "lean to the left and defecate in his pants." The police report also stated he "showed obvious signs and symptoms of extreme alcohol impairment."
London has since taken to Twitter to defend the allegations against him, which were also picked up by the gossip site TMZ.
"Guys, the TMZ report is a total f--king lie. I got jumped by three 250 pound bouncers," he wrote Tuesday. "They knocked me out and beat me for several minutes. I would never say or do the crap they are reporting. Have faith in me, the truth will come out and you will see."
"Some guy thought I was hitting on his girl and had me jumped. My wife was in the next room, had no idea what even happened," he continued to explain, "I hate Arizona."
