Charlie Sheen’s ex-wife, Brooke Mueller, has been arrested on suspicion of third-degree assault and cocaine possession with intent to distribute, according to US police.

Authorities said officers arrested Ms Mueller in the early hours at a nightclub after a woman reported being assaulted by her.

Ms Mueller posted an €8,000 bond and was released from custody. She’s scheduled in court on December 19.

Mr Sheen and Ms Mueller divorced earlier this year, citing Christmas Day 2009 as the day of their break-up.

Charlie Sheen was arrested in Aspen on that day on suspicion of assaulting Ms Mueller. He completed his probation on that case last November.
