One hotel-trashing story is enough for Charlie Sheen for one lifetime.

While the erstwhile Warlock has admitted to a meltdown at New York City's famed Plaza Hotel last October, an apparently hoppin'-mad Sheen is vehemently refuting a report that he engaged in yet another drug-fueled bender—allegedly  destroying his suite at Manhattan's Ritz-Carlton—over the weekend.

In fact, the Anger Management star has promised to sue over it.

Sources close to Sheen told TMZ that the 46-year-old actor is huddling with his legal team in a bid to get to the bottom of who is responsible for spreading what he told E! News on Wednesday was total "B.S." and "aggrandized fiction."

And what may result is a defamation suit against the insider who allegedly spoke to Us Weekly, which printed the story.

Sheen says he spent a relatively quiet evening with his ex-wife, Denise Richards, and their two daughters, 8-year-old Sam and 6-year-old Lola, taking in a baseball game on Friday night, which is when his alleged shenanigans with a bevy of escorts were said to have gone down.

Sheen's rep, Larry Solters, told E! News on the red carpet at the premiere of Charlie's new FX comedy that neither is talking to the tabloid anymore.

"How embarrassing for Us Weekly," the rep said.
