Kiefer Sutherland Surrenders to Face Head-Butting Charge

It took a little more than 24 hours, and there was no ticking time bomb scenario, but Kiefer Sutherland finally made it.

Jack Bauer's alter ego arrived this afternoon at a New York police station where he is due to be booked for allegedly head-butting a fashion designer at a party early  Tuesday.

According to an NYPD spokeswoman, the 42-year-old Sutherland showed up at about 4 p.m. for questioning at the 1st Precinct in lower Manhattan.

He did not address reporters as he entered the building flanked by his lawyers. He will likely be booked on one count of misdemeanor assault and issued an appearance citation that leaves the 24 star free to travel until his arraignment.

Developing story. More to come...
