July 6, 2016, 8 years ago
Stemming from an incident dating back to April where Mötley Crüe singer Vince Neil allegedly grabbed a woman by the hair when she sought an autograph of actor Nicolas Cage at a Las Vegas hotel, TMZ is reporting that Neil has been charged with misdemeanor battery and could face six months in jail.
Cell phone video posted on celebrity website TMZ below shows Cage grabbing Neil around the neck while restraining him and shouting, "Stop this." It does not show the fracas between Neil and the woman.
“Neil claimed he only "pushed past" a female autograph seeker at the Aria last week... but according to police records, obtained by TMZ, officers reviewed surveillance footage which showed the Mötley Crüe frontman pulling the woman down to the ground by her hair.”
