Well maybe this explains why his wife Julie Cypher left him for Melissa Etheridge! Lou Diamond Phillips was charged with domestic battery on Thursday in connection with an assault on his live-in girlfriend last month. Although his mouthpiece called it a "misunderstanding," the girlfriend had apparently locked herself in a bathroom to get away from him and dialed 911 for help.
According to police reports, the 44-year-old actor got into an argument with his unidentified girlfriend, and it escalated into a physical fight in the early hours of August 11. The woman was "pushed and dragged across the house resulting in scrapes to both knees," City Attorney Rocky Delgadillo said in a statement.
The actor possibly faces a year in jail and a $2,000 fine if he's convicted of the misdemeanor charge.
"Lou was released on his own recognizance," a spokesperson for the actor said. "There have been no charges pressed, it has been a misunderstanding."
