LOS ANGELES (KTLA) — A man is facing charges of assault after allegedly attacking Tom Sizemore in the actor’s downtown apartment and stealing expensive guitars and other property.
The incident was reported around 9 p.m. on March 14 at the actor’s residence in the 400 block of South Main Street.
According to police, Sizemore was involved with a woman whose boyfriend came looking for the actor.
The man, who was not identified, pretended he had a gun and threatened the woman and the actor.
He then allegedly put Sizemore in a headlock in a bathroom before taking off with guitars and other property.
Officers tracked down the suspect and recovered Sizemore’s property.
Sizemore, who starred in the films “Saving Private Ryan,” “Natural Born Killers” and “Black Hawk Down,” is no stranger to law enforcement.
The actor was convicted in 2003 of assault and battery against his girlfriend, former “Hollywood Madam” Heidi Fleiss.
In 2005 he was sentenced to 7 months in jail and four months in drug treatment for repeatedly failing drug tests while on probation.
Two years later, Sizemore was arrested outside the Four Points Sheraton hotel in Bakersfield, California for possession of methamphetamine.
He was sentenced to 16 months in prison.

Why give Sizemore all the publicity, when he was the victim?

Wow, just when I thought a KTLA.com story couldn't get worse. "Kennedy Ryan," please review your third grade grammar book to learn the proper use of a comma and other basic punctuation. Also, please add a few facts such as the suspect's name which can be found on the L.A. County Sheriff's website.
