Actor Michael Madsen, known
for roles in films such as "Thelma & Louise"
was arrested for child cruelty
after getting into a fight with his teenage son, authorities said on Saturday.
The
actor was detained at his home in Malibu on Friday afternoon on suspicion of
child endangerment. Madsen reportedly got into a fight with his teenage son
after he allegedly caught him smoking pot. Michael, 54, was then held on a
charge of child endangerment and cruelty to a child. It's a family matter and
Michael asks that his families privacy be respected.
Police responded to a domestic
disturbance in the star's Malibu, Calif., home. Reuters reports that Madsen was
charged with child endangerment and cruelty to a child, which are felony
charges. Madsen is the father of five sons. With his current wife, Deanna
Morgan, the big screen actor has three sons. Upon his release, TMZ asked Madsen
for a statement, and the "Reservoir Dogs" star told them
"everything's fine."
