Motley Crüe singer Vince Neil has been charged with assault after an incident in Las Vegas. His ex-girlfriend alleges he had assaulted her after they ran in to each other at a show in the casino city. It’s a bit of “he said she said” – some witnesses say he poked her in the shoulder, while she alleges that he hit her.

Neil is threatening to file a counter claim, saying she scratched him in the incident. Neil has been struggling to keep out of trouble with the law, being arrested on drink driving charges last year and serving 10 days behind bars in February after pleading guilty.
