Ryan O'Neal Fights with Son, Pulls a Gun

Ryan O'Neal, 65, was arrested Saturday morning at his Malibu home after a fight with his son, Griffin, 42.


O'Neal was booked on charges of assault with a deadly weapon and negligent discharge of a firearm. He was released from jail at 5:30am and after posting $50,000 bail.

Police told TMZ.com that O'Neal fired at least one gunshot during the scuffle. A girlfriend of Griffin's was reportedly hurt during the domestic dispute, but police failed to specify if it was due to a gunshot or not.

Griffin is apparently just as screwed up as his father. He has had multiple run ins with the law..

From TMZ:

"Griffin O'Neal, son of Ryan and Joanna Moore, is also no stranger to the law. The 42-year-old spent 18 days in jail for not performing the community service ordered by a judge who found him guilty of reckless boating in a 1986 accident that killed the son of film director Francis Ford Coppola."

Griffin also has a history of substance abuse. He pleaded no contest to a drunken driving charge in 1989. In 1992, he agreed to spend one year in a live-in drug rehabilitation program after pleading no contest to charges he shot at his estranged girlfriend's unoccupied car."


So this looks like one big happy fucked up family.

I find it apalling that #1, a father pulled a gun in a fight with his son, and #2, that back in 1986 Griffin couldn't even perform the community service requested of him for contributing to events that resulted in the death of a person. What a slap in the face to Francis Ford Coppola and family.
