LAPD told the Daily News that Sizemore’s bail was set at $50,000.

TMZ reports that the 54-year-old actor has been accused of beating up his girlfriend, after the Los Angeles Police Department responded to several calls reporting a woman screaming, on Tuesday (19.07.16).

A rep for Sizemore has not commented on today’s arrest.

Sizemore became a star in the late 1990s and early 2000s with acclaimed appearances in “Saving Private Ryan” and “Heat”.

Actor Tom Sizemore attends the premiere of the film “The Expendables 3” in Los Angeles August 11, 2014.

His comeback started in recent years after he wrote the candid book “By Some Miracle I Made It Out of There: A Memoir” about his recovery from addiction. “I do not want to make excuses but I am convinced that if I had not been under the influence of drugs, I would have controlled my behavior”.

The woman reportedly told authorities that Sizemore hit her in the face and head after they got into an argument.

Sizemore has a record of domestic violence for physically abusing his former girlfriend, “Hollywood Madam” Heidi Fleiss. He fell into debt and owed millions of dollars.

In 2007, he was sentenced to 16 months in prison for violating his probation in a drug-related case.
