Kristy Swanson beats up non-vampire
June 18, 2007 (dose.ca / Kat Angus) -- It's been 15 years since she starred in the original Buffy the Vampire Slayer, but Kristy Swanson is still kicking some ass. People reports that Swanson, 37, was arrested Saturday night (June 16) for allegedly assaulting Marcia O'Brien, the ex-wife of Swanson's boyfriend, figure skater Lloyd Eisler.
Swanson, 36, was taken into police custody in Kingston, Ontario, after O'Brien filed a formal complaint against her. She was later released on $500 bail.
"I had to go the police station where I had an appointment at 9 p.m. to begin the process of being arrested," Swanson explains to People. However, she maintains that O'Brien initiated the attack and plans to file charges of her own against the woman.
Swanson and Eisler began their romance when they were paired up for Skating With the Stars in 2006. The coupling created quite a bit of controversy because Eisler left his pregnant wife for the former Buffy star. The situation is reminiscent of the Tori Spelling/Dean McDermott/Mary Jo Eustace debacle, except this time it involves people you care even less about.
