Kiefer Sutherland and designer Jack McCollough have put the headbutt incident behind them, releasing a joint statement on Friday (May 22) which should see the charges against the 24 star dropped.
“I am sorry about what happened that night and sincerely regret that Mr. McCollough was injured,” the actor said in the statement issued via his attorney to The Associated Press.
McCollough added, “I appreciate Mr. Sutherland’s statement and wish him well.”
Whether the third-degree assault charge will be dropped against Sutherland is up to the Manhattan District Attorney’s office, who declined to comment at the time of writing whether the case would be dismissed.
