Jason London denies behaving badly during arrest

Written by . Published: January 30 2013

Actor Jason London has vehemently denied reports suggesting he lashed out at cops during an arrest in Arizona on Sunday (27Jan13).


The Dazed And Confused star ended up in handcuffs after he was involved in a bust-up during a night out at the Martini Ranch bar in Scottsdale.


According to a report on TMZ.com, London was thrown out of the venue after punching a bouncer, and allegedly became aggressive with police who arrived at the scene, hurling insults and homophobic slurs at them.


The 40 year old is also said to have bragged about being a "rich and famous actor" before defecating in the back of the police car.


London was arrested for disorderly conduct/fighting and assault, but he took to his Twitter.com page on Tuesday (29Jan13) to protest his innocence, vowing to set the record straight.


In a series of posts, he writes, "Guys, the TMZ report is a total f**king lie. I got jumped by three 250 pound bouncers. They knocked me out and beat me for several minutes. I would never say or do the c**p they are reporting. Have faith in me. The truth will come out and you will see.


"Some guy (in the club) thought I was hitting on his girl and had me jumped (attacked). My wife was in the next room, had no idea what even happened. I hate Arizona. Wait till you see the real pictures. I have a right orbital fracture and sinus fracture. The truth will win."
