Batman star Christian Bale was arrested today for allegedly assaulting his mother and sister, according to reports in the British media.

Here’s what ABC news is saying:

Scotland Yard declined to confirm the reports, but a spokesman told ABCNews.com that “a 34-year-old man was arrested in connection with allegations of assault. He currently remains in custody at a central London police station.”

The Press Association reported that the actor, 34, was questioned by police at a central London police station. He is now believed to have left the station.

Bale was allegedly arrested after attacking his mother and sister in his suite at London’s Dorchester Hotel Sunday, according to the British wire service.

Sources say the assault was over a long time family dispute.

Only time will tell if Christian will recover from his dark night!

“The Paps!”

An update:

Now, the Los Angeles Times is saying this:

“Christian Bale attended a London police station today, on a voluntary basis, in order to assist with an allegation that had been made against him to the police by his mother and sister.

“Mr. Bale who denies the allegation, co-operated throughout, gave his account in full of the events in question, and has left the station without any charge being made against him by the police.

“At this time, there will be no further comment by Mr. Bale.”
