MCCOLLOUGH REQUIRED SURGERY AFTER SUTHERLAND'S ALLEGED ASSAULT
Fashion designer JACK MCCOLLOUGH required surgery to mend his broken nose after actor KIEFER SUTHERLAND allegedly headbutted him at a New York fashion party.
The 24 star stands accused of third-degree assault after allegedly headbutting Proenza Schouler designer MCCollough at a Met Costume Institute Gala afterparty on Tuesday (05May09) night.
Sutherland surrendered himself to police at the NYPD First Precinct on Thursday afternoon (07May09) and was officially arrested and charged with the misdemeanour.
MCCollough was snapped with red scratches on his face after the incident; but the designer insists his injuries were far worse than they appear.
His spokesperson tells People.com, "Mr. MCCollough suffered a broken nose in three places as a result of the assault. He received medical treatment last night after consulting with physicians... (he) had to have his nose reset. It's painful and it felt horrible."
Sutherland, who is currently under a probation order in Los Angeles relating to a 2007 conviction for driving under the influence (DUI), faces a $1,000 (£670) fee and up to a year in jail if convicted of the third-degree assault charge.
His arraignment is scheduled for 22 June (09) at Manhattan Criminal Court.

I have just seen Mccullough on TV sporting a huge bandage on his virtually
undamaged face. No bruising no swelling what a miracle that a person's nose
could be broken and yet need no medical attention at all until all this blew up
and leaving no outward sign except a tiny scratch. Doubtless he had to make
himself look less of a jerk for making a fuss about nothing so he got the
bandage put on hours and hours after the event. I hope Mr Sutherlands lawyers
will get an independant x-ray done and have the guy arrested for perverting the
course of justice. I would rather have Mr Sutherland ,who was trying to stand
up for a woman, as a friend than Mccullough who in my opinion seems to be a
liar.
A girl at work had her nose broken playing sports. She said she had to hold a
basin under it because there was so much blood. Her nose was the size of a
tennis ball and she had a plaster cast fixed to her face for weeks. I CANNOT
believe that someone whose nose was broken would be able to refuse medical help
at the time. It seems to me that this is just a ruse to make Mr Sutherland look
worse than he was. Knowing he can get carried away when he has had some drinks
maybe the best thing for Mr Mccollough to have done was to say to Miss Shields
"I didn't realise I had bumped into you but if I did I certainly apoloogise."
Costs nothing and no harm done. I am NOT excusing Mr Sutherland's behaviour but
the situation could have been defused before it got that far.
