Charlie Sheen arrested in domestic dispute, police say(CNN) -- Actor Charlie Sheen was arrested early Friday and charged with several offenses with a domestic violence component, Aspen, Colorado, police said.
Sheen, 44, is being held without bond in the Pitkin County Jail pending a court appearance. A date for that appearance has not been set.
The actor was charged with second degree assault and menacing, both felonies, and criminal mischief, a misdemeanor, police said. Additionally, Colorado law mandates a protective order between someone arrested for domestic violence and the victim.
Sheen's spokesman, Stan Rosenfield, cautioned against jumping to conclusions.
"Do not be misled by appearance," he said. "Appearance and reality can be as different as night and day."
Police said the alleged victim, whom they did not identify, did not require a trip to a hospital.
Sheen has been married to sometime actress and real estate investor Brooke Allen since May after a nearly two-year engagement. The couple has twin sons born in March. Allen is his third wife.
Sheen, whose real name is Carlos Irwin Estevez, is the son of actor Martin Sheen. He has two brothers and a sister -- Emilio, Ramon and Renee Estevez -- who are also actors. He stars in the popular television comedy "Two and a Half Men" with Jon Cryer.
