Report: Kiefer Sutherland Headbutts Man over Brooke Shields

Kiefer Sutherland rose to Brooke Shields's defense early Tuesday morning in Downtown Manhattan – though she didn't particularly request it, and the interloper allegedly suffered a broken nose from the 24 star, according to reports.

"There was an incident that occurred at 2 a.m. at 99 Prince [Street]," a NYPD spokesperson tells PEOPLE. "It's all under investigation by the police department … People will come in sometime this afternoon [to be questioned].

New York's Daily News reports that Proenza Schouler women's wear designer Jack McCollough – a friend of Shields's – interrupted her and Sutherland while they were speaking outside the SoHo nightspot SubMercer, resulting in an agitated Sutherland allegedly headbutting McCollough after the two men exchanged words.

Witnesses also say Shields was shoved but not hurt. All were out for an after party following the Met's Costume Institute Gala, and a rep for Shields denied she had anything to do with the alleged headbutting. "Nothing happened to her ... Jack did nothing inappropriate. It's not clear what caused Kiefer to do what he did," the rep told TMZ.com.

The designer reportedly received a minor cut on his nose. McCollough is quoted as telling authorities that Sutherland "was drunk and obnoxious and wouldn't back down or be logical," and that the actor "pulled this stupid wrestling move like a teenager" before the headbutt.

Police and friends of Sutherland's told the News that Sutherland was intoxicated. The paper says that both Sutherland, 42, and Shields, 43, are expected to speak to the police on Wednesday.

Last fall, Sutherland served a seven-week sentence for DUI.-
 
I just love the fact that Kathy Griffin (whom I love) went crazy with the plastic
surgery after looking at Brooke day after day on that sitcom set.



I've never found Kiefer or his ilk even remotely attractive.
