Sean Penn Charged With Battery And Vandalism

Sean Penn has been charged with misdemeanor battery and vandalism stemming from an October 2nd altercation with a photographer in Los Angeles.
The incident occurred outside of the Malibu Country Mart, where an enraged Penn allegedly attack a paparazzo and broke his camera.
If convicted, Sean will receive up to 18 months in jail. Penn will answer to these latest charges in court on March 22nd.
Penn is certainly no stranger to battery charges (or jail time). In 1985, he plead no contest to charges he assaulted two photogs trying to get a shot of Madonna in Nashville, and in 1987 received 60 days in jail as a result of beating up an extra from the set of Colors (Sean was on probation at the time.)

He's clearly got a short fuse!
