ex-’family ties’ star bonsall arrested
AP — BOULDER, Colo. — Former child star Brian Bonsall, who played Andy Keaton in “Family Ties,” was arrested on charges of assaulting his girlfriend, police said.
Bonsall was arrested Wednesday after his girlfriend told police he poured an alcoholic drink on her face while she slept, put her in a choke hold and threw her onto a bed when she tried to leave, authorities said.
Bonsall told investigators he pushed the woman down in self-defense after she cut his arm and face with a steak knife, but she denied that, police said.
jay: um, did he have cuts or what? tell me more, associated press! we need to know what happened to little tow-headed andy ‘choke-hold’ keaton! choke hold!
dan: my first thought was to look for a family ties curse, but there’s not much there there. justine bateman hasn’t done much since “satisfaction,” but she’s still got jason’s success to hitch her wagon to. and wikipedia tells me that tina yothers “holds the record…for second highest weight loss…in the history of [celebrity fit club].” so i don’t know what bonsall’s problem is.

Bonsall also played Worf’s son on Star Trek: TNG. He was probably having a Klingon flashback, hence the rage.
