Hollywood tough guy actor Vinnie Jones (Gone in Sixty Seconds) has been charged over a brutal glassing that left him with 48 stitches — while the man who slashed him will not even face court, reports TMZ.
The charges come after Jones, a British soccer star turned actor, proclaimed his innocence in the media following a bar brawl in South Dakota last Friday. Police said the brawl began after Jones approached some patrons in the bar and tried to join their game of pool.
When one of the patrons referred to Jones as "Juggernaut", a minor character he played in "X-Men: The Last Stand," the 43-year-old actor took offence. "He started pushing my friends around," patron Juan Barrera was quoted as saying. "He said he's been in so many other movies."
Police said the actor charged at patron Jesse Bickett, 24, who then struck Jones in the face with a beer glass.
The pair were arrested and put behind bars after the incident, with Jones claiming that Bickett planted the beer mug in his face in an "unprovoked attack." But Bickett has now been cleared of any wrongdoing, while Jones has been charged with three counts of assault.
